Famous quotes containing the words cornerstone and/or statistics:

    “The General has dedicated himself so many times, he must feel like the cornerstone of a public building.”

    “We ask for no statistics of the killed,
    For nothing political impinges on

    Missing or healing, sinking or dispersed,
    Hundreds of thousands counted, millions lost.”
    —Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
