Famous quotes containing the words power and/or systems:
“You cannot have power for good without having power for evil too. Even mother’s milk nourishes murderers as well as heroes.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“The skylines lit up at dead of night, the air- conditioning systems cooling empty hotels in the desert and artificial light in the middle of the day all have something both demented and admirable about them. The mindless luxury of a rich civilization, and yet of a civilization perhaps as scared to see the lights go out as was the hunter in his primitive night.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
