“You can imagine rich countries lining up to get preferred quantities.”
Brook Baker
“The quantity of riches one must earn can be compared to the shoes one wears; if too small, they cause pain; if too big, they are a hindrance to physical and mental comfort. When we have more, it breeds pride, sloth and contempt for others.”
Atharva Veda
“There are quantities of human faces, but there are many more faces, for each person has several.”
Rainer Maria Rilke
“That Quantity that is sufficient, the Stomach can perfectly concoct and digest, and it sufficeth the due Nourishment of the Body.”
Benjamin Franklin
“Forty thousand brothersCould not, with all their quantity of love,Make up my sum.”
William Shakespeare
“Things base and vile, holding no quantity, love can transpose to form and dignity. Love looks not with the eye, but with the mind, and therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.”
“Truth, like the juice of the poppy, in small quantities, calms men; in larger, heats and irritates them, and is attended by fatal consequences in excess”
Walter Savage Landor
