I have made my ordspråk

I have made my living bearing witness to some of the most horrific events of the end of our century, at the end of the 20th century.

Christiane Amanpour (1958-)

The 20th century has been a century of bloodshed. The present century, because of our past experience, should be a century of peace. The new shapers of the planet are you, the young children.

Dalai Lama (1935-)

One layer was certainly 17th century. The 18th century in him is obvious. There was the 19th century, and a large slice, of course, of the 20th century; and another, curious layer which may possibly have been the 21st.

Clement Attlee (1803-1857)

Clement Attlee

We're moving into the 20th century. I know it's the 21st century already, but at least we'll finally be in the 20th century.

Waiting around till you die belongs to the 20th century. The 21st century is time to develop physical and social skills and engage with the community ... and living at a marina, for those who can afford it, is showing the way.

My colleagues in the literary department say it's all very escapist stuff. I think, 'No, no, no.' It's actually all about what happened in the 20th century. The 20th century has basically been industrialized warfare,

Tom Shippey (1943-)

In the past, people overworked, but commonly because they were forced by poverty or impelled by a sense of duty. Now work can be a neurotic addiction. 'Workaholic' is a 20th-century word, one suspects, because it is a 20th-century type.

Tacking on the kiss at the end made it too romantic, much more like a Victorian or 20th-century story, rather than the early 19th-century story that it really is.

Jane Austen (1775-1817)

Jane Austen

The fact that a state could in fact carry this out under the eyes of the international community and get away with it, became in fact a hallmark of what the 20th century, the tragic 20th century, was really all about, ... The Black Sea: A History.

Charles King (1889-)

It's no accident that he should've felt that way because I very consciously was writing a book about the 20th century. In fact, all during the writing of the book I had a subtitle in mind, not that I was going to use it but it was kind of a working tool, which was "Anna Bloom Walks Through The 20th Century."

Paul Auster (1947-)

Women's interest is shoes is very complex. I think it is a late 20th- early 21st-century obsession in part because - like hats in the middle part of the 20th century - they are fashion that is attainable for most women.

Elizabeth Semmelhack

We are living in 1937, and our universities, I suggest, are not half-way out of the fifteenth century. We have made hardly any changes in our conception of university organization, education, graduation, for a century - for several centuries.

H. G. Wells (1866-1946)

H. G. Wells

I think there are perhaps four playwrights of the 20th century that we could not have done without: Chekhov, Pirandello, Brecht and Beckett. If you've got those four, you've got the century covered.

Edward Albee (1928-)

Edward Albee

Opera is an 18th- and 19th-century art that must find a 20th-century audience.
