General Formula

Famous quotes containing the words general and/or formula:

    You have lived longer than I have and perhaps may have formed a different judgment on better grounds; but my observations do not enable me to say I think integrity the characteristic of wealth. In general I believe the decisions of the people, in a body, will be more honest and more disinterested than those of wealthy men.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    I take it that what all men are really after is some form or perhaps only some formula of peace.
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
