The quote from Stalin comes to mind, quantity has a quality of it's own.
- noir-york 11y agoYep I also thought of that as I wrote that line. I wonder how that sounded to his cannon fodde^H^H^H soldiers...
- the_af 11y agoIt probably didn't sound like anything because it's most likely a misattribution (see the more detailed answers here: https://www.quora.com/Who-said-Quantity-has-a-quality-all-its-own https://www.quora.com/Who-said-Quantity-has-a-quality-all-it...). Not saying that Quora or Wikipedia are authoritative sources, but many of this sort of alleged quotes by Stalin are usually either what someone thought Stalin might have said, or coined by Western authors writing about Stalin and later misattributed to him. Most references I've found point to an American saying this quote (or similar) in the 70s.
