A noble man compares and estimates himself by an idea which is higher than himself; and a mean man, by one lower than himself. The one produces aspiration; the other ambition, which is the way in which a vulgar man aspires.
Marcus Aurelius

Paul Simon
I had a financial page to write in the Mail on Sunday where I'd give tips on shares. I worked there for two and a half years. Nothing compares to the burst of energy felt on a newsroom floor when a big story breaks.
Adam Faith
The life of every man is a diary in which he means to write one story, and writes another; and his humblest hour is when he compares the volume as it is with what he vowed to make it.

James Newman
There are plenty of problems in the world, many of them interconnected. But there is no problem which compares with this central, universal problem of saving the human race from extinction.
John Foster Dulles
There is nothing that compares to an unexpected round of applause.
Lynn Abbey
There's no conversation more boring than talking about what it's really like to live in Newport and how the show compares to the real thing. I just don't care.
Adam Brody
There's something about having a great bottle of wine and a great cigar. Nothing compares to it.
