Famous quotes containing the words power and/or sum:
“Knowing does not always allow us to prevent, but at least the things that we know, we hold them, if not in our hands, but at least in our thoughts where we may dispose of them at our whim, which gives us the illusion of power over them.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
“They are but beggars that can count their worth,
But my true love is grown to such excess
I cannot sum up sum of half my wealth.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
