I don't consider my marriages as failures! It's idiotic to assume that because a marriage ends, it's failed.
Margaret MeadNo society has ever yet been able to handle the temptations of technology to mastery, to waste, to exuberance, to exploration and exploitation... We have to learn to cherish this earth and cherish it as something that's fragile, that's only one, it's all we have... We have to use our scientific knowledge to correct the dangers that have come from science and technology.
Margaret Mead... some veil between childhood and the present is necessary. If the veil is withdrawn, the artistic imagination sickens and dies, the prophet looks in the mirror with a disillusioned and cynical sneer, the scientist goes fishing.
Margaret MeadThe most intractable problem today is not pollution or technology or war; but the lack of belief that the future is very much in the hands of the individual.
