Million Yen

Famous quotes containing the words million and/or yen:

    “I should consider it a greater success to interest one wise and earnest soul, than a million unwise and frivolous.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Diamond, the only trouble with you is you’d like to be me. You’d like to have my organization, my influence, my fix. You can’t; that’s impossible. You think it’s money; it’s not. It’s personality. You haven’t got it, Lieutenant. You’re a cop. Slow. Steady. Intelligent. With a bad temper, and a gun under your arm. And with a big yen for a girl he can’t have. First is first, and second is nobody.”
    —Philip Yordan (b. 1913)
