Famous quotes containing the words profit and/or corporations:
“All schools, all colleges, have two great functions; to confer, and to conceal, valuable knowledge. The theological knowledge which they conceal cannot justly be regarded as less valuable than that which they reveal. That is, when a man is buying a basket of strawberries it can profit him to know that the bottom half of it is rotten.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (18351910)
“[If a woman athlete who had contracted the AIDS virus admitted that she] had been with one hundred or two hundred men, theyd call her a slut, and the corporations would drop her like a lead balloon.”
—Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
