Liberal

Famous quotes containing the word liberal:

    Where you are liberal of your loves and counsels,
    Be sure you be not loose; for those you make friends
    And give your hearts to, when they once perceive
    The least rub in your fortunes, fall away
    Like water from ye, never found again
    But where they mean to sink ye.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Virginia Crocheron Gildersleeve (1877–1965)
