Extensive Quantities

Famous quotes containing the words extensive and/or quantities:

    In an extensive reading of recent books by psychologists, psychoanalysts, psychiatrists, and inspirationalists, I have discovered that they all suffer from one or more of these expression-complexes: italicizing, capitalizing, exclamation-pointing, multiple-interrogating, and itemizing. These are all forms of what the psychos themselves would call, if they faced their condition frankly, Rhetorical-Over-Compensation.
    James Thurber (1894–1961)

    Compilers resemble gluttonous eaters who devour excessive quantities of healthy food just to excrete them as refuse.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
