Famous quotes containing the words total, stopping and/or time:
“Both the man of science and the man of art live always at the edge of mystery, surrounded by it. Both, as a measure of their creation, have always had to do with the harmonization of what is new with what is familiar, with the balance between novelty and synthesis, with the struggle to make partial order in total chaos.... This cannot be an easy life.”
—J. Robert Oppenheimer (1904–1967)
“There seems to be no stopping drug frenzy once it takes hold of a nation. What starts with an innocuous HUGS, NOT DRUGS bumper sticker soon leads to wild talk of shooting dealers and making urine tests a condition for employment—anywhere.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
“Because Time cannot alter but obey Fate’s laws.
[Chorus:] Then happy those whom Fate, that is the stronger,
Together twists their threads, and yet draws hers the longer.”
—Aurelian Townshend (c. 1583–c.1651)
