Famous quotes containing the word process:

    “The moralist and the revolutionary are constantly undermining one another. Marx exploded a hundred tons of dynamite beneath the moralist position, and we are still living in the echo of that tremendous crash. But already, somewhere or other, the sappers are at work and fresh dynamite is being tamped in place to blow Marx at the moon. Then Marx, or somebody like him, will come back with yet more dynamite, and so the process continues, to an end we cannot foresee.”
    —George Orwell (1903–1950)

    “That which endures is not one or another association of living forms, but the process of which the cosmos is the product, and of which these are among the transitory expressions.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    “Yet I doubt not through the ages one increasing purpose runs,
    And the thoughts of men are widened with the process of the suns.”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
