About This Quote

A thousand minus one is never a thousand. This quote can be interpreted in many different ways. It could mean that if you have a thousand dollars, but lose one dollar, you still have 999 dollars. It can also be interpreted as ten thousand minus one hundred is never a hundred.

In this context, the word “not” is being used to signify that even if you lose everything, you still have a very large amount of wealth and assets. The word “never” can also be used to show how it is impossible for something to ever be zero.
