World Wealth Report

Famous quotes containing the words world, wealth and/or report:

    Like the effects of industrial pollution ... the AIDS crisis is evidence of a world in which nothing important is regional, local, limited; in which everything that can circulate does, and every problem is, or is destined to become, worldwide.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    I should say tact was worth much more than wealth as a road to leadership.... I mean that subtle apprehension which teaches a person how to do and say the right thing at the right time. It coexists with very ordinary qualities, and yet many great geniuses are without it. Of all human qualities I consider it the most convenient—not always the highest; yet I would rather have it than many more shining qualities.
    M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

    rather then men shall say we were hange’d,
    Let them report how we were slaine.’
    Unknown. Johnie Armstrong (l. 51–52)
