Famous quotes containing the words air, force and/or base:
“If when a businessman speaks of minority employment, or air pollution, or poverty, he speaks in the language of a certified public accountant analyzing a corporate balance sheet, who is to know that he understands the human problems behind the statistical ones? If the businessman would stop talking like a computer printout or a page from the corporate annual report, other people would stop thinking he had a cash register for a heart. It is as simple as that—but that isn’t simple.”
—Louis B. Lundborg (1906–1981)
“Force was his juices and force was his meat.”
—Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)
“There is but one pride pardonable; that of being above doing a base or dishonorable action.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
