Famous quotes containing the words judged and/or larger:
“Facts are generally overesteemed. For most practical purposes, a thing is what men think it is. When they judged the earth flat, it was flat. As long as men thought slavery tolerable, tolerable it was. We live down here among shadows, shadows among shadows.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
“The earth only has so much bounty to offer and inventing ever larger and more notional prices for that bounty does not change its real value.”
