Sloping Demand Curve

Famous quotes containing the words demand and/or curve:

    Our frigate takes fire,
    The other asks if we demand quarter?
    If our colors are struck and the fighting done?
    Now I laugh content for I hear the voice of my little captain,
    We have not struck, he composedly cries, we have just begun our part of the fighting.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    And out again I curve and flow
    To join the brimming river,
    For men may come and men may go,
    But I go on forever.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
