Famous quotes containing the word capital:
“That monstrous tuberosity of civilised life, the capital of England.”
—Thomas Carlyle (17951881)
“For mankind, speech with a capital S is especially meaningful and committing, more than the content communicated. The outcry of the newborn and the sound of the bells are fraught with mystery more than the babys woeful face or the venerable tower.”
—Paul Goodman (19111972)
“There exists, between people in love, a kind of capital held by each. This is not just a stock of affects or pleasure, but also the possibility of playing double or quits with the share you hold in the others heart.”
