Indifferent

Famous quotes containing the word indifferent:

    There is no human failure greater than to launch a profoundly important endeavour and then leave it half done. This is what the West has done with its colonial system.

    The Yuppies are not defectors from revolt, they are a new race, assured, amnestied, exculpated, moving with ease in the world of performance, mentally indifferent to any objective other than that of change and advertising.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    All I desire for my own burial, is not to be buried alive; but how or where, I think, must be entirely indifferent to every rational creature.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
