Famous quotes containing the words present and/or progressive:
“Talk to them about things they dont know. Try to give them an inferiority complex. If the actress is beautiful, screw her. If she isnt, present her with a valuable painting she will not understand. If they insist on being boring, kick their asses or twist their noses. And thats about all there is to it.”
—John Huston (19061987)
“A radical is one of whom people say He goes too far. A conservative, on the other hand, is one who doesnt go far enough. Then there is the reactionary, one who doesnt go at all. All these terms are more or less objectionable, wherefore we have coined the term progressive. I should say that a progressive is one who insists upon recognizing new facts as they present themselvesone who adjusts legislation to these new facts.”
—Woodrow Wilson (18561924)
