Famous quotes containing the words fill and/or factor:

    Oh blindness to the future! kindly giv’n,
    That each may fill the circle mark’d by Heav’n:
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    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)
