Economy Began

Famous quotes containing the words economy and/or began:

    The counting-room maxims liberally expounded are laws of the Universe. The merchant’s economy is a coarse symbol of the soul’s economy. It is, to spend for power, and not for pleasure.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Once we began to see our images
    Reflected in the mud and even dust,
    ‘Twas disillusion upon disillusion.
    We were lost piecemeal to the animals,
    Like people thrown out to delay the wolves.
    Nothing but fallibility was left us....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
