Big Combination

Famous quotes containing the words big and/or combination:

    Schools of fish come to those who wait patiently; if the big ones don’t come, the little ones will.
    Chinese proverb.

    By the “mud-sill” theory it is assumed that labor and education are incompatible; and any practical combination of them impossible. According to that theory, a blind horse upon a tread-mill, is a perfect illustration of what a laborer should be—all the better for being blind, that he could not tread out of place, or kick understandingly.... Free labor insists on universal education.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
