Famous quotes containing the words league and/or business:
“I am not impressed by the Ivy League establishments. Of course they graduate the best—it’s all they’ll take, leaving to others the problem of educating the country. They will give you an education the way the banks will give you money—provided you can prove to their satisfaction that you don’t need it.”
—Peter De Vries (b. 1910)
“Mily: You must remember me!?
Tadeusz: I never remember pretty women. It’s so expensive.
My friend, after twenty thousand years murder is still a business that’s mainly in the hands of amateurs.”
—Orson Welles (1915–1985)
