Famous quotes containing the words top, ten, money, making and/or stars:

    That’s how the Germans are.... The aristocrats at the top hard as glass, cold as ice, servants of the King, the working masses willing, pliable, sentimental, susceptible to brutality, the middle class educated and cowardly to the point of servility.
    Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)

    We have the power to do any damn fool thing we want to do, and we seem to do it about every ten minutes.
    J. William Fulbright (b. 1905)

    Providing for one’s family as a good husband and father is a water-tight excuse for making money hand over fist. Greed may be a sin, exploitation of other people might, on the face of it, look rather nasty, but who can blame a man for “doing the best” for his children?
    Eva Figes (b. 1932)

    Let a human being throw the energies of his soul into the making of something, and the instinct of workmanship will take care of his honesty.
    Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)

    Truly the stars were given for a consolation to man.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
