Friedrich Nietzsche
“Woman once made equal to man becomes his superior”
Socrates
“The man for whom the law exists -- the man of forms, the conservative -- is a tame man.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“The report isn't so tame as to deter the Fed from bumping rates another notch, especially with Y2K fears dissipating and consumers showing no signs of fatigue. However, it should ease market fears that the Fed will need to tighten several more times.”
Oscar Gonzalez
“Be not too tame neither, but let your own discretion be your tutor: suit the action to the word, the word to the action.”
William Shakespeare
“He's mad that trusts in the tameness of a wolf, a horse's health, a boy's love, or a whore's oath.”
“Of course, it’s a bit of a jump, isn’t it? I mean, er… chartered accountancy to lion taming in one go… You don’t think it might be better if you worked your way towards lion taming, say via banking?”
Monty Python
