A consumer doesn't take anything away: he doesn't actually consume anything. Giving the same thing to a thousand consumers is not really any more expensive than giving it to just one.
Linus Torvalds
All over the place, from the popular culture to the propaganda system, there is constant pressure to make people feel that they are helpless, that the only role they can have is to ratify decisions and to consume.
Noam Chomsky
Architecture tends to consume everything else, it has become one's entire life.
Arne Jacobsen
As the rich consume more and more, they are clearly not going to want to downgrade their own status.
Susan George
Dieting on New Year's Day isn't a good idea as you can't eat rationally but really need to be free to consume whatever is necessary, moment by moment, in order to ease your hangover. I think it would be much more sensible if resolutions began generally on January the second.
Helen Fielding
I was recently looking at what they can actually do to reduce consumption of petrol. It would be quite possible to build automobiles out of carbon fibre that would be just as strong, weigh 10 times less and consume 10 times less petrol.
Susan George
If it's great stuff, the people who consume it are nourished. It's a positive force.
Manuel Puig
Imagine a thousand more such daily intrusions in your life, every hour and minute of every day, and you can grasp the source of this paranoia, this anger that could consume me at any moment if I lost control.
Jack Henry Abbott
In recent years personal injury attorneys and trial lawyers have attacked the food industry with numerous lawsuits alleging that these businesses should pay monetary damages to those who, of their own accord, consume too much of a legal, safe product.
Bob Ney
It's much easier to consume the visual image than to read something.
Lawrence Ferlinghetti
Land, in England, is valuable, because we have highly-paid artisans to consume the produce on the spot.
Joseph Hume
Let each produce according to his aptitudes and his force; let each consume according to his need.
Louis Blanc
No one has a right to consume happiness without producing it.
Helen Keller
One can only guess the amount of magic mushrooms a sane person would have to consume to believe that a frisbee constituted a genuine threat to roughly 3,000 police officers.
Mark Thomas
Our demand for meat, dairy and refined carbohydrates - the world consumes one billion cans or bottles of Coke a day - our demand for these things, not our need, our want - drives us to consume way more calories than are good for us.
Mark Bittman
That's the thing about us lawyers - if at all possible, we will consume each other.
Christopher Darden
The easier things are to buy, the more we consume.
Erik Qualman
The great thing about the Internet is that it allows people to find and consume music.
Andy Taylor
The mere attempt to examine my own confusion would consume volumes.
James Agee
The war on drugs is wrong, both tactically and morally. It assumes that people are too stupid, too reckless, and too irresponsible to decide whether and under what conditions to consume drugs. The war on drugs is morally bankrupt.
