Famous quotes containing the words ordinary and/or hydrogen:
“If ordinary people complain that I speak too much of myself, I complain that they do not even think of themselves.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“The pace of science forces the pace of technique. Theoretical physics forces atomic energy on us; the successful production of the fission bomb forces upon us the manufacture of the hydrogen bomb. We do not choose our problems, we do not choose our products; we are pushed, we are forced—by what? By a system which has no purpose and goal transcending it, and which makes man its appendix.”
—Erich Fromm (1900–1980)
