Industrial Base

Famous quotes containing the words industrial and/or base:

    Revolution? Unscrew the flag-staff, wrap the bunting in the oil covers, and put the thing in the clothes-chest. Let the old lady bring you your house-slippers and untie your fiery red necktie. You always make revolutions with your mugs, your republic—nothing but an industrial accident.
    Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)

    The worst of my actions or conditions seem not so ugly unto me as I find it both ugly and base not to dare to avouch for them.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
