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)

    “When a Benefit is wrongly conferred, the author of the Benefit may often be said to injure.”
