Famous quotes containing the word business:

    “Every expansion of government in business means that government in order to protect itself from the political consequences of its errors and wrongs is driven irresistibly without peace to greater and greater control of the nation’s press and platform. Free speech does not live many hours after free industry and free commerce die.”
    —Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)

    “It doesn’t make any difference to me what a man does for a living, you understand. But your business is a little dangerous.”
    —Mario Puzo (b. 1920)

    “Mily: You must remember me!?
    Tadeusz: I never remember pretty women. It’s so expensive.
    My friend, after twenty thousand years murder is still a business that’s mainly in the hands of amateurs.”
    —Orson Welles (1915–1985)
