Negative Cash Flows

Famous quotes containing the words negative, cash and/or flows:

    The idealist’s programme of political or economic reform may be impracticable, absurd, demonstrably ridiculous; but it can never be successfully opposed merely by pointing out that this is the case. A negative opposition cannot be wholly effectual: there must be a competing idealism; something must be offered that is not only less objectionable but more desirable.
    Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

    Lora May: Did you ever stop to think, Porter, that in over three years there’s one word we’ve never said to each other, even in fun.
    Porter: To you, I’m a cash register. You can’t love a cash register.
    Lora May: And I’m part of your inventory. You can’t love that either.
    Joseph L. Mankiewicz (1909–1993)

    The anguish of the neurotic individual is the same as that of the saint. The neurotic, the saint are engaged in the same battle. Their blood flows from similar wounds. But the first one gasps and the other one gives.
    Georges Bataille (1897–1962)
