My favorite quotes on quality over quantity.
Quality over quantity is a common complaint, but it’s often related to the difficulty of finding quality items. It’s like the old saying, “Give me a dozen beers and I’ll give you a dozen kids.
Quality over quantity means you’re in the right place at the right time for the right price. In the old days, you could have a good deal more to do in a day than you can in a week, but the quality is still better than the quantity. In this case, the quality over quantity was already a part of our identity. The other parts of our identity were inextricably bound with the quality.
This has a lot to do with our sense of self. We are all the products of what we experience. We are not only the sum of our experiences, but the sum of our interactions with other people. We are made not only of our own perceptions, but the perceptions of others. We can’t separate ourselves from the sum of our experiences, but we can separate ourselves from the sum of what others have to think about us.
