Productive Consumption

Famous quotes containing the words productive and/or consumption:

    What seems to be, is, to those to whom
    It seems to be, and is productive of the most dreadful
    Consequences to those to whom it seems to be, even of
    Torments, despair, eternal death.
    William Blake (1757–1827)

    There is held to be no surer test of civilisation than the increase per head of the consumption of alcohol and tobacco. Yet alcohol and tobacco are recognisable poisons, so that their consumption has only to be carried far enough to destroy civilisation altogether.
    Havelock Ellis (1859–1939)
