Famous quotes containing the word business:
“Your business is not to catch men with show,
With homage to the perishable clay,
But lift them over it, ignore it all,
Make them forget theres such a thing as flesh.
Your business is to paint the souls of men”
—Robert Browning (18121889)
“Young men of the fairest promise, who begin life upon our shores, inflated by the mountain winds, shined upon by all the stars of God, find the earth below not in unison with these,but are hindered from action by the disgust which the principles on which business is managed inspire, and turn drudges, or die of disgust,some of them suicides.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“I want to preach a new doctrine. A complete separation of business and government.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (18821945)
