We might as well reasonably dispute whether it is the upper or under blade of a pair of scissors that cuts a piece of paper, as whether value is governed by [demand] or [supply].
- Alfred Marshall
Principles of Economics, 8th ed., 1920, p. 348.

- David R. Henderson
"Demand," in The Fortune Encyclopedia of Economics, 1993.
