Frequently Asked Questions

What do these quotes say about wealth and hands?
A couple of quotes use "hands" as a metaphor for control over wealth. One warns that when wealth is "concentrated in the hands of the few," a country can hardly witness harmony and stability. Another takes a different view, arguing wealth "should be in the hands of those who know how to create more wealth."
Is there a quote about live performances and hands?
Yes — one quote about singing describes not wanting music to feel like "make-believe," made just for the crowd "to hold up their hands." It's about keeping performance genuine rather than playing to the crowd.
Do any quotes touch on weapons?
Yes, one short quote states plainly, "Military-assault weapons have no place in civilian hands." It's presented here simply as that quote's own statement of opinion.
What's the common thread across these "hands" quotes?
Hands here mostly stand in for control, action, and responsibility — whether that's control of wealth, the act of performing, or possession of weapons. If quotes about taking action resonate with you, our Action quotes cover similar ground.
