Famous quotes containing the words large and/or amounts:
“Spring is strong and virtuous,
Broad-sowing, cheerful, plenteous,
Quickening underneath the mould
Grains beyond the price of gold.
So deep and large her bounties are,
That one broad, long midsummer day
Shall to the planet overpay
The ravage of a year of war.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“... no one with a happy childhood ever amounts to much in this world. They are so well adjusted, they never are driven to achieve anything.”
—Sue Grafton (b. 1940)
