Famous quotes containing the words growth and/or rates:

    “When I have plucked the rose,
    I cannot give it vital growth again,
    It needs must wither. I’ll smell it on the tree.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “[The] elderly and timid single gentleman in Paris ... never drove down the Champs Elysees without expecting an accident, and commonly witnessing one; or found himself in the neighborhood of an official without calculating the chances of a bomb. So long as the rates of progress held good, these bombs would double in force and number every ten years.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
