Defined Benefit

Famous quotes containing the words defined and/or benefit:

“Long before Einstein told us that matter is energy, Machiavelli and Hobbes and other modern political philosophers defined man as a lump of matter whose most politically relevant attribute is a form of energy called “self-interestedness.” This was not a portrait of man “warts and all.” It was all wart.”
—George F. Will (b. 1941)

“In a country where offices are created solely for the benefit of the people no one man has any more intrinsic right to official station than another.”
