Famous quotes containing the words form and/or factor:

    Thought is the seed of action; but action is as much its second form as thought is its first.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Weapons are an important factor in war, but not the decisive factor; it is people, not things, that are decisive. The contest of strength is not only a contest of military and economic power, but also a contest of human power and morale. Military and economic power is necessarily wielded by people.
    Mao Zedong (1893–1976)
