Number Due

Famous quotes containing the words number and/or due:

    He is the richest man who knows how to draw a benefit from the labors of the greatest number of men, of men in distant countries, and in past times.

    Like to the Pontic Sea,
    Whose icy current and compulsive course
    Ne’er knows retiring ebb, but keeps due on
    To the Propontic and the Hellespont,
    Even so my bloody thoughts with violent pace
    Shall ne’er look back, ne’er ebb to humble love,
    Till that a capable and wide revenge
    Swallow them up.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
