Insurance Bet

Famous quotes containing the words insurance and/or bet:

    ... business training in early life should not be regarded solely as insurance against destitution in the case of an emergency. For from business experience women can gain, too, knowledge of the world and of human beings, which should be of immeasurable value to their marriage careers. Self-discipline, co-operation, adaptability, efficiency, economic management,—if she learns these in her business life she is liable for many less heartbreaks and disappointments in her married life.
    Hortense Odlum (1892–?)

    “... But let’s forgive him.
    We’ve had a share in one night of his life.
    What’ll you bet he ever calls again?”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
