It's the age-old struggle: the roar of the crowd on the one side, and the voice of your conscience on the other. Douglas MacArthur There's a lot of whiners in every crowd. R. Lee Ermey I have never wished to cater to the crowd; for what I know they do not approve, and what they approve I do not know. Epicurus The time when most of you should withdraw into yourself is when you are forced to be in a crowd. Epicurus Being prime minister is a lonely job... you cannot lead from the crowd.

Elvis Presley We survived a Slayer crowd every night for about 50 days and thought we could do about anything after that. Layne Staley A person who is too nice an observer of the business of the crowd, like one who is too curious in observing the labor of bees, will often be stung for his curiosity.
