Underlying Price

Famous quotes containing the words underlying and/or price:

    Sport in the sense of a mass-spectacle, with death to add to the underlying excitement, comes into existence when a population has been drilled and regimented and depressed to such an extent that it needs at least a vicarious participation in difficult feats of strength or skill or heroism in order to sustain its waning life-sense.
    Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)

    Who makes ends meet, who’s taking the knock,
    Government tariffs, wages, price of stock.
    Smoke hangs under the light.
