Equal Prize Money

Famous quotes containing the words equal, prize and/or money:

“Commercial jazz, soap opera, pulp fiction, comic strips, the movies set the images, mannerisms, standards, and aims of the urban masses.

They are a kind of common denominator, a kind of scheme for pre-scheduled, mass emotions.”
—C. Wright Mills (1916–62)

“Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.”
—Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919)

“Words are wise men’s counters, they do but reckon by them: but they are the money of fools.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1588–1679)
