Similar Quantities

Famous quotes containing the words similar and/or quantities:

“Take us generally as a people, we are neither lazy nor idle; and considering how little we have to excite or stimulate us, I am almost astonished that there are so many industrious and ambitious ones to be found; although I acknowledge, with extreme sorrow, that there are some who never were and never will be serviceable to society. And have you not a similar class among yourselves?”
—Maria Stewart (1803–1879)

“Compilers resemble gluttonous eaters who devour excessive quantities of healthy food just to excrete them as refuse.”
