Marginal Rate

Famous quotes containing the words marginal and/or rate:

    Most works of art are effectively treated as commodities and most artists, even when they justly claim quite other intentions, are effectively treated as a category of independent craftsmen or skilled workers producing a certain kind of marginal commodity.
    Raymond Williams (1921–1988)

    “Terence, this is stupid stuff:
    You eat your victuals fast enough;
    There can’t be much amiss, ‘tis clear,
    To see the rate you drink your beer.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)
