Ideal System

Famous quotes containing the words ideal and/or system:

“The emancipation of today displays itself mainly in cigarettes and shorts.

—Sylvia Pankhurst (1882–1960)

“Delight at having understood a very abstract and obscure system leads most people to believe in the truth of what it demonstrates.”
