Famous quotes containing the words trade and/or goods:

    Conversation is a traffick; and if you enter into it, without some stock of knowledge, to ballance the account perpetually betwixt you,—the trade drops at once: and this is the reason ... why travellers have so little [good] conversation with natives,—owing to their [the natives’] suspicion ... that there is nothing to be extracted from the conversation ... worth the trouble of their bad language.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    What is a man if he is not a thief who openly charges as much as he can for the goods he sells?
    Mohandas K. Gandhi (1869–1948)
