Famous quotes containing the words the world, cement, industry and/or world:

    Common looking people are the best in the world: that is the reason the Lord makes so many of them.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    It is fair to assume that when women in the past have achieved even a second or third place in the ranks of genius they have shown far more native ability than men have needed to reach the same eminence. Not excused from the more general duties that constitute the cement of society, most women of talent have had but one hand free with which to work out their ideal conceptions.
    Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)

    The Founding Fathers in their wisdom decided that children were an unnatural strain on parents. So they provided jails called schools, equipped with tortures called an education. School is where you go between when your parents can’t take you and industry can’t take you.
    John Updike (b. 1932)

    There is hope for the future. When the world is ready for a new and better life all this will some day come to pass in God’s good time.
    Earl Felton, and Richard Fleischer. Captain Nemo (James Mason)
