Industrial Base

Famous quotes containing the words industrial and/or base:

“Predatory capitalism created a complex industrial system and an advanced technology; it permitted a considerable extension of democratic practice and fostered certain liberal values, but within limits that are now being pressed and must be overcome. It is not a fit system for the mid- twentieth century.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)

“Report of fashions in proud Italy,
Whose manners still our tardy-apish nation
Limps after in base imitation.”
