Vast Majority

Famous quotes containing the words vast and/or majority:

“His mind resembled the vast amphitheatre, the Colisæum at Rome. In the centre stood his judgement, which, like a mighty gladiator, combated those apprehensions that, like the wild beasts of the Arena, were all around the cells, ready to be let out upon him. After a conflict, he drove them back into their dens; but not killing them, they were still assailing him.”
—James Boswell (1740–1795)

“He is fiddling while Rome is burning, and, unlike the enormous majority of people who do this, fiddling with his face towards the flames.”
—George Orwell (1903–1950)
