Goods

Famous quotes containing the word goods:

“Customers are treasure; goods are but straw.”
—Chinese proverb.

“The goods of fortune ... were never intended to be talked out of the world.—But as virtue and true wisdom lie in the middle of extremes,—on one hand, not to neglect and despise riches, so as to forget ourselves,—and on the other, not to pursue and love them so, as to forget God;Mto have them sometimes in our heads,—but always something more important in our hearts.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

“Crowns in my purse I have, and goods at home,
And so am come abroad to see the world.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
