Famous quotes containing the words free and/or trade:

    “The brisk fond lackey to fetch and carry,
    The true, sick-hearted slave,
    Expect him not in the just city
    And free land of the grave.”
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    “A nose, kind sir! Sure, Mother Nature,
    With all her freaks, ne’er formed this feature.
    If such were mine, I’d try and trade it,
    And swear the gods had never made it.”
    —Susanna Moodie (1803–1885)
