Famous quotes containing the words market, timing and/or violations:

    Today the tyrant rules not by club or fist, but, disguised as a market researcher, he shepherds his flocks in the ways of utility and comfort.
    Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

    Is it a new spring star
    Within the timing chill,
    Talking, or just a mime,
    That rises in the blood
    Thin Jack-and-Jilling seas
    Without the human will?
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    There is no end to the violations committed by children on children, quietly talking alone.
