Valuable Erroneous Quotatations

There is nothing more difficult to carry out, nor more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to handle, than to initiate a new order of things. For the reformer has enemies in all who profit by the old order. Machiavelli 1513

The tradition of all the dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brain of the living. Karl Marx, mid 19th cent.

The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries. Winston Churchill, mid 20th cent.

The collision of alphabetic and electronic culture borders typical for the 20th century grants the printed word a decisive role for the inhibition of our return to the Africa within ourselves. Marshall McLuhan, 1962

The evolution of the PC proceeded similar to the development of the printed book, but it took only fourty years instead of sixhundred. Alan Kay, 1977
