Famous quotes containing the words injured and/or reserve:
“We tried pathetic appeals to the wandering waiters, who told us they are coming, Sir in a soothing toneand we tried stern remonstrance, & they then said they are coming, Sir in a more injured tone; & after all such appeals they retired into their dens, and hid themselves behind sideboards and dish-covers, still the chops came not. We agreed that of all virtues a waiter can display, that of a retiring disposition is quite the least desirable.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
“We must reserve a back shop all our own, entirely free, in which to establish our real liberty and our principal retreat and solitude.”
