Market Rate

Famous quotes containing the words market and/or rate:

    Ae market night,
    Tam had got planted unco right,
    Fast by an ingle, bleezing finely,
    Wi’ reaming swats that drank divinely;
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    As a novelist, I cannot occupy myself with “characters,” or at any rate central ones, who lack panache, in one or another sense, who would be incapable of a major action or a major passion, or who have not a touch of the ambiguity, the ultimate unaccountability, the enlarging mistiness of persons “in history.” History, as more austerely I now know it, is not romantic. But I am.
    Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
