William Beveridge Quotes

This would only come if you have a revolutionary change in technology like the jet brought about.

I am not nostalgic about things. When you have a kind of improvement, I am not nostalgic about the past.

We've had great successes, but our future is not about our past success. It's going to be about whether we will invent things that are really going to drive our future.

We're not thinking about the past, we're full steam ahead on the future.

If we are to make the most of the opportunities ahead we need a bold break with the past.

We make the future better than the past. We don't hide from history. We make history.

Old ways will always remain unless some one invents a new way and then lives and dies for it

Humanity is the start of the race; I say Humanity is the mould to break away from, the crust to break through, the coal to break into fire, The atom to be split.

Science is not about status quo. It's about revolution.

Encourage innovation. Change is our lifeblood, stagnation our death knell.

The world is for newness, not for oldness. New, new things we have to create. Then only the world will progress. If not, we will come to feel that there is nothing new under the sun.

There is no improving the future without disturbing the present.

Italy will start the future. Because in the last 20, 20 years, Italy discussed only about the past. "Oh, the past is wonderful in Italy." Look, look Palazzo Vecchio. The most beautiful place in the world, in my opinion, I think this is incredible place. But the past is not sufficient. Is not enough. We need the future. Because we are Italians. And Italy is not only a museum.

The cradle of the future is the grave of the past.

Do not belong to the past dawns,but to the noons of future

Let's go invent tomorrow instead of worrying about what happened yesterday.

America, this is our moment. This is our time. Our time to turn the page of the policies of the past.

Creativity is the power to reject the past, to change the status quo, and to seek new potential. Simply put, aside from using one's imagination - perhaps more importantly - creativity is the power to act.

In this day of wonders no one will say that a thing or an idea is worthless because it is new. To say it is impossible because it is difficult is again not in consonance with the spirit of the age. Things undreamt of are daily being seen, the impossible is ever becoming possible.

The end of an age is always a time of turmoil, war, economic catastrophe, cynicism, lawlessness and distress. But it is also an era of heightened challenge and creativity, of issues, and their world-wide scope, never has an era faced a more demanding and exciting crisis. This then, above all else, is the great and glorious era to live in, a time of of opportunity, one requiring fresh and vigorous thinking, indeed, a glorious time to be alive.

We stand today on the edge of a new frontier.
