Famous quotes containing the words modern, control and/or theory:

    The whole imposing edifice of modern medicine is like the celebrated tower of Pisa—slightly off balance.
    Prince Charles (b. 1948)

    America is not so much a nightmare as a non-dream. The American non-dream is precisely a move to wipe the dream out of existence. The dream is a spontaneous happening and therefore dangerous to a control system set up by the non-dreamers.
    William Burroughs (b. 1914)

    Freud was a hero. He descended to the “Underworld” and met there stark terrors. He carried with him his theory as a Medusa’s head which turned these terrors to stone.
    —R.D. (Ronald David)
