A Quote by Frederick Schiller Faust

Crowds of men are like crowds of sheep. Not the best, but the first leader is usually followed. — © Frederick Schiller Faust
Crowds of men are like crowds of sheep. Not the best, but the first leader is usually followed.
Crowds of bees are giddy with clover Crowds of grasshoppers skip at our feet, Crowds of larks at their matins hang over, Thanking the Lord for a life so sweet.
I think the crowds in Europe are songwriter crowds. Like, they are a fan of the words, and they're there to listen. An American crowd, they're there to get rowdy, man. And I love both.
My hatred of crowds, the obviousness of crowds, of anything en masse. Is this why I like little-known books? A general desire to escape the main world.
Why don't I like crowds? I suppose the worst possible thing I could say is that I don't like people, and that crowds are just collections of people. That seems like a very nihilistic way to look at the world.
The 'wisdom of the crowds' is the most ridiculous statement I've heard in my life. Crowds are dumb.
It takes people to move crowds in the right direction, crowds by themselves just stand around and mutter.
Crowds of minds can be wise, but crowds of bodies just aren't.
I've wrestled in front of great crowds in Montreal, and I've wrestled absolutely terrible crowds where you're in front of, like, 200 people.
Crowds prevent you to see the infinite horizons; get rid of the crowds and open your horizons.
Loneliness is a good education. You learn the things no crowds can teach and you discover the things no crowds can give.
Hey, we've all been to high school We've seen the in-crowds. Most of us have been in the outer crowds, the people who weren't in. Although I was never in, I was selling records and was very happy.
Creating festivals made a major impact on society in general because you couldn't draw large crowds indoors. At Newport we were soon drawing crowds of 10,000 and there weren't halls that could hold that many people.
Where there had been only jeers or taunts at first, crowds come to listen with serious and sympathetic men.
Crowds, I'm not good in crowds. I almost had a mental breakdown, I almost lost my cool at Disneyland one time when the park was closing, and I turn around and saw just a sea of people coming at me and a stroller full of kids.
The wisdom of the crowds has peaked. Web 3.0 is taking what we've built in Web 2.0 - the wisdom of the crowds - and putting an editorial layer on it of truly talented, compensated people to make the product more trusted and refined.
I feel called to help individuals, to love each human being. I never think in terms of crowds in general but in terms of persons. Were I to think about crowds, I would never begin anything.
