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)

    Forced from home, and all its pleasures,
    Afric’s coast I left forlorn;
    To increase a stranger’s treasures,
    O’er the raging billows borne.
    Men from England bought and sold me,
    Paid my price in paltry gold;
    But, though theirs they have enroll’d me,
    Minds are never to be sold.
    William Cowper (1731–1800)
