Bread Loaf

Famous quotes containing the words bread and/or loaf:

    If a weakly mortal is to do anything in the world besides eat the bread thereof, there must be a determined subordination of the whole nature to the one aim—no trifling with time, which is passing, with strength which is only too limited.
    Beatrice Potter Webb (1858–1943)

    Compromise used to mean that half a loaf was better than no bread. Among modern statesmen it really seems to mean that half a loaf is better than a whole loaf.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
