Sunk Cost Investments

Famous quotes containing the words sunk, cost and/or investments:

    Remember all those renowned generations,
    Remember all that have sunk in their blood,
    Remember all that have died on the scaffold,
    Remember all that have fled, that have stood,
    Stood, took death like a tune
    On an old tambourine.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    It is not enough for theory to describe and analyse, it must itself be an event in the universe it describes. In order to do this theory must partake of and become the acceleration of this logic. It must tear itself from all referents and take pride only in the future. Theory must operate on time at the cost of a deliberate distortion of present reality.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    In youth, love and art. In age, investments and antiques.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
