Quote examples
Ernest Hemingway
American Novelist
Certainly it is valuable to a trained writer to crash in an aircraft which burns. He learns several important things very quickly. Whether they will be of use to him is conditioned by survival. Survival, with honor, that outmoded and all-important word, is as difficult as ever and as all-important to a writer.
Quote examples
Mohsin Hamid
Pakistani Writer
I think that when we take the long view, the notion that some people are deemed less worthy of being able to move - to not have the right to cross borders - over time, that's going to seem as outmoded and as unfair, really, as racial discrimination or other kinds of discrimination.
Quote examples
Shirley Chisholm
American Politician
Legal discrimination between the sexes is, in almost every instance, founded on outmoded views of society and the pre-scientific beliefs about psychology and physiology. It is time to sweep away these relics of the past and set further generations free of them.
Quote examples
Marcel Wanders
Dutch Designer
Modernism is an outmoded way of thinking about design: it just doesn't reflect the way we live now. It always puts forward this idea that the past is irrelevant to tomorrow - and tomorrow is all that matters. But the past is part of who we are.
Quote examples
Hilary Mantel
English Writer
You can control and censor a child's reading, but you can't control her interpretations; no one can guess how a message that to adults seems banal or ridiculous or outmoded will alter itself and evolve inside the darkness of a child's heart.
Quote examples
Robin Sloan
American Author
There's just no escaping it: The half-life of media on the Internet is super short. Tweets flow and fade; pages that look great today will be gone or, at best, riddled with broken links and outmoded code in five years, tops.
Quote examples
Lynn Coady
Canadian Novelist
Dating, like almost every other male-female interaction in present-day society, is based on outmoded and unequal social roles and expectations.
Quote examples
Terry Brennan
If you're old and you lose, they say you're outmoded. If you're young and you lose, they say you're green. So don't lose.

American Businessman
Unless a product becomes outmoded, a great campaign will not wear itself out.

Sleep is a outmoded concept. It's best not to think about sleep.
