Exchange Rate Appreciation

Famous quotes containing the words exchange, rate and/or appreciation:

    Love is often nothing but a favorable exchange between two people who get the most of what they can expect, considering their value on the personality market.
    Erich Fromm (1900–1980)

    We honor motherhood with glowing sentimentality, but we don’t rate it high on the scale of creative occupations.
    Leontine Young (20th century)

    It is remarkable that, notwithstanding the universal favor with which the New Testament is outwardly received, and even the bigotry with which it is defended, there is no hospitality shown to, there is no appreciation of, the order of truth with which it deals. I know of no book that has so few readers. There is none so truly strange, and heretical, and unpopular. To Christians, no less than Greeks and Jews, it is foolishness and a stumbling-block.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
