Purpose Maker

Famous quotes containing the words purpose and/or maker:

    To found a great empire for the sole purpose of raising up a people of customers, may at first sight appear a project fit only for a nation of shopkeepers. It is, however, a project altogether unfit for a nation of shopkeepers, but extremely fit for a nation that is governed by shopkeepers.
    Adam Smith (1723–1790)

    A cry of bitter dead men who will never
    Attend a gentle maker of musical joy.
