O` the mass of arms, the brilliant leadership, the courage and magnitude of the ancient armies of Greece, combined to conquer the city of Troy - all that, and ten years of perseverance
Hipponax the Satirist
This may be the day when finally after all the false dawns and dashed hope, peace replaced war, politics replaces terror on the island of Ireland. ... This is a step of unparalleled magnitude in the recent history of Northern Ireland.
Tony Blair
With the magnitude of the game, catching 18 innings, it didn`t seem like that, ... If it was a regular-season game, maybe it would have seemed like that. But the atmosphere here, and what we needed to accomplish, it wasn`t as big of a deal.
Brian McCann
While we of course expect to incur losses resulting from insurance claims, it is far too early to estimate their magnitude,
Assistant Commissioner Tarique Ghaffur
Whence it follows that God is absolutely perfect, since perfection is nothing but magnitude of positive reality, in the strict sense, setting aside the limits or bounds in things which are limited.

When you look at the volume -- I think in `95, when they had the last slide, they were talking about 600,000 tons of sand and mud coming down -- there`s really nothing that can stop something of that magnitude. It`s almost completely a sheer cliff.
Anne Mills

Anthony Shaftesbury
There could have been more planning in New Orleans, but you look at all the devastation that happened there - have we gotten to 3,000 deaths yet? For that magnitude of a disaster, that`s not all that bad.
Alison Lewis
The sheer magnitude and frequency of wholesale price rallies are such that absorbing these increased costs to protect market share is simply not a commercially viable option.
Andrew Hill
That was kind of scary. You got the sense as a little kid that you might be at risk now, and then you`re like, `Why are we at risk? It`s because my grandfather is in charge of all of this.` You can`t really realize the magnitude of a job like that when yo...
Lauren Bush
