Underlying Price

Famous quotes containing the words underlying and/or price:

    Comedy deflates the sense precisely so that the underlying lubricity and malice may bubble to the surface.
    Paul Goodman (1911–1972)

    They give us a pair of cloth shorts twice a year for all our clothing. When we work in the sugar mills and catch our finger in the millstone, they cut off our hand; when we try to run away, they cut off our leg: both things have happened to me. It is at this price that you eat sugar in Europe.
    Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)
