 A billion here, a billion there, and pretty soon you're talking about real money.

 During a political campaign everyone is concerned with what a candidate will do on this or that question if he is elected except the candidate; he's too busy wondering what he'll do if he isn't elected

 There is no force so powerful as an idea whose time has come.

 [Think these are just] drops in the bucket? ... A million here, a million there, and pretty soon you're talking about real money.
