Famous quotes containing the word population:

    “The broad masses of a population are more amenable to the appeal of rhetoric than to any other force.”
    —Adolf Hitler (1889–1945)

    “How much atonement is enough? The bombing must be allowed as at least part-payment: those of our young people who are concerned about the moral problem posed by the Allied air offensive should at least consider the moral problem that would have been posed if the German civilian population had not suffered at all.”
    —Clive James (b. 1939)

    “The paid wealth which hundreds in the community acquire in trade, or by the incessant expansions of our population and arts, enchants the eyes of all the rest; the luck of one is the hope of thousands, and the bribe acts like the neighborhood of a gold mine to impoverish the farm, the school, the church, the house, and the very body and feature of man.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
