Famous quotes containing the words largest and/or producers:

    “The debt was the most sacred obligation incurred during the war. It was by no means the largest in amount. We do not haggle with those who lent us money. We should not with those who gave health and blood and life. If doors are opened to fraud, contrive to close them. But don’t deny the obligation, or scold at its performance.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    “When producers want to know what the public wants, they graph it as curves. When they want to tell the public what to get, they say it in curves.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
