Famous quotes containing the words million and/or loss:
“Thus every Part was full of Vice,
Yet the whole Mass a Paradise...
The worst of all the Multitude
Did something for the Common Good.
... ...Luxury
Employd a Million of the Poor,
And odious Pride a Million more...
... ...the very Poor
Livd better than the Rich before...”
—Bernard De Mandeville (16701733)
“Upset at the young wifes
first loss of virtue
in a riverside thicket,
a flock of birds
flies up,
mourning the loss
with their wings.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
