Famous quotes containing the words key and/or figures:

    “Now narrow minds can develop as well through persecution as through benevolence; they can assure themselves of their power by tyrannizing cruelly or beneficently over others; they go the way their nature guides them. Add to this the guidance of interest, and you will have the key to most social riddles.”
    —Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)

    “It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
