The masses do not see the Sirens. They do not hear songs in the air. Blind, deaf, stooping, they pull at their oars in the hold of the earth. But the more select, the captains, harken to a Siren within them... and royally squander their lives with her.

The masses don't shed their blood for the benefit of a few individuals.
‐‐ Stokely Carmichael
The masses will reject any theory, however reasonable it may be, if it lays a restriction upon the appetite.
‐‐ Ellen G. White
The massive bulk of the earth does indeed shrink to insignificance in comparison with the size of the heavens.
‐‐ Nicolaus Copernicus
The massive debt we have racked up to finance our wasteful government is pulling down growth today. Gross debt over 90 percent of GDP weakens growth now. Not tomorrow - now.
‐‐ Jeff Sessions
The massive migration from dumb phones to smart phones is a great opportunity for young companies to take advantage of.

'The Master and Margarita' is deeply to do with the unconscious. It is a story about a man who writes a story in a time when he's not supposed to write that story: the story of Pontius Pilate.
‐‐ Simon McBurney
The master class seldom lose a chance to insult a woman who has the ability for something besides service to his lordship.
‐‐ Caroline M. Nichols Churchill
'The Master' is a wonderful film, honestly, and the actors, Joaquin Phoenix and Phillip Seymour Hoffman, are incredible.
‐‐ Laetitia Casta
'The Master,' it was really important to me to go see that in the theater, but that's a very rare occurrence for me. I typically enjoy things on my laptop. I'm in bed; I can be able to pause them.
‐‐ Shane Carruth
The Master of Ceremonies in 'Bridge and Tunnel' is a wonderful man, if I do say so myself. I talk about all the characters in the third person. But, he is a really congenial... just a good stand-up guy, who happens to be Pakistani-American. He's been here for years.

The master plan does not have a master plan. Television ultimately finds itself, and after it finds itself, it finds itself changing.
‐‐ Joss Whedon
The master's irresponsible power has no such bound.
‐‐ Fanny Kemble
The master's tools will never dismantle the master's house.
‐‐ Audre Lorde
'The Master' with Joaquin Phoenix puts up a good fight, but my favorite movie of all time is 'The Wizard of Oz.' I just love it. I watched it over and over again as a child, and I think it has all the elements of wonder, and it's a beautiful story.

The Masters is a sell-out annually, and even the scalpers mind their manners.
‐‐ Dan Jenkins
The Masters is a very important tournament. You don't want to jeopardize your chances. The sponsors understand that.
‐‐ Stuart Appleby
The Masters is going to be an awesome challenge.
‐‐ Nigel Mansell
The Masters is one of golf's greatest traditions and Augusta is one of the best courses in the world. They are synonymous. It's an event that every golfer, and golf fan, looks forward to.
‐‐ Mike Weir
The Masters is where I won my first major, and I view this tournament with great respect. After a long and necessary time away from the game, I feel like I'm ready to start my season at Augusta.
‐‐ Tiger Woods
The Masters, while it has slowly gained equal importance as a major, isn't really the championship of anything.
‐‐ Dan Jenkins
The masterstroke of male fraternity, I believed, was the practice of never speaking of anything remotely personal or related to one's emotions. That way, no one is ever made uncomfortable. Any such awkward moments can always be dispelled with a flurry of pretend-punches.
‐‐ Lynn Coady
The mastery of nature is vainly believed to be an adequate substitute for self mastery.
‐‐ Reinhold Niebuhr
The match against Brazil was football at its best. Both sides had opportunities to win the game.
‐‐ Michel Patini
The match has become quite unpredictable, but it still looks as though Arsenal will win the cup.
‐‐ John Motson
The material came bubbling up inside like a geyser or an oil gusher. It streamed up of its own accord, down my arm and out of my fountain pen in a torrent of six thousand words a day.
‐‐ C. S. Forester
The material I did was lasting material. A lot of people thought I wasn't doing anything, but I was in the studio. The biggest factor is the material you choose. You hunt, you cut.
‐‐ Slim Whitman
The materialism, the brashness, the misogyny - everything in hip-hop is amplified. Misogyny is a good example of something that is completely amplified in hip-hop. I do think there is more than enough of a balance, though, for fans who are willing to search it out.
‐‐ Talib Kweli
The materialistic paradigm of Western science has been a major obstacle for any objective evaluation of the data describing the events occurring at the time of death.
‐‐ Stanislav Grof
The materials of the novelist must be real; they must be gathered from the field of humanity by his actual observation.
‐‐ Goldwin Smith
The materials of wealth are in the earth, in the seas, and in their natural and unaided productions.
‐‐ Daniel Webster
The maternal duty of suckling her own children, prescribed to mothers by hygienists, is based on a physiological principle: the mother's milk nourishes an infant more perfectly than any other.
‐‐ Maria Montessori
The math is dead simple: it seems that the frequency of planets able to support life is roughly one percent. In other words, a billion or more such worlds exist in our galaxy alone. That's a lot of acreage, and it takes industrial-strength credulity to believe it's all bleakly barren.
‐‐ Seth Shostak
The math of quantum mechanics and the math of general relativity, when they confront one another, they are ferocious antagonists and the equations don't work.
‐‐ Brian Greene
The math works. Over the course of a season, there's some predictability to baseball. When you play 162 games, you eliminate a lot of random outcomes. There's so much data that you can predict: individual players' performances and also the odds that certain strategies will pay off.
‐‐ Billy Beane
The mathematical facts worthy of being studied are those which, by their analogy with other facts, are capable of leading us to the knowledge of a physical law.
‐‐ Henri Poincare
The mathematical framework of quantum theory has passed countless successful tests and is now universally accepted as a consistent and accurate description of all atomic phenomena.
‐‐ Erwin Schrodinger
The mathematician, carried along on his flood of symbols, dealing apparently with purely formal truths, may still reach results of endless importance for our description of the physical universe.
‐‐ Karl Pearson
The mathematician has reached the highest rung on the ladder of human thought.
‐‐ Havelock Ellis
The mathematics is not there till we put it there.
‐‐ Arthur Eddington
The mathematics of quantum mechanics very accurately describes how our universe works.
‐‐ Antony Garrett Lisi
The mathematics of rhythm are universal. They don't belong to any particular culture.
‐‐ Mahavishnu John McLaughlin
The matinee audiences are different because they're mostly kids, a great percentage kids. So they respond to everything differently, but I understand what they do respond to.
‐‐ Rue McClanahan
'The Matrix' is a movie that is all about glamour. I could do a whole talk on 'The Matrix' and glamour. It was criticized for glamorizing violence, because, look - sunglasses and those long coats, and, of course, they could walk up walls and do all these kinds of things that are impossible in the real world.
‐‐ Virginia Postrel
The Matrix is top secret. There isn't much that can be said right now.
‐‐ Aaliyah
The Matrix itself is not some external evil, but rather an outcome of our own error, our karmic payoff of past actions. Not merely illusion, it is an allusion to a founding myth of our culture.

The matter of international relations is very subtle and exquisite.

The Mavericks and I have mutually agreed that it's in the best interest of both parties for me to step away from the team.
‐‐ Lamar Odom
The MAVNI program allows citizenship to be granted to any enlistee who serves one day of wartime service.

The maxim, that governments ought to train the people in the way in which they should go, sounds well. But is there any reason for believing that a government is more likely to lead the people in the right way than the people to fall into the right way of themselves?
