Historically Significant

Famous quotes containing the words historically and/or significant:

    Skilled workers historically have been ambivalent toward automation, knowing that the bodies it would augment or replace were the occasion for both their pain and their power.
    Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)

    Priests and physicians should never look one another in the face. They have no common ground, nor is there any to mediate between them. When the one comes, the other goes. They could not come together without laughter, or a significant silence, for the one’s profession is a satire on the other’s, and either’s success would be the other’s failure.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
