Mutual

Famous quotes containing the word mutual:

    I anticipate with pleasing expectations that retreat in which I promise myself to realize, without alloy, the sweet enjoyment of partaking, in the midst of my fellow citizens, the benign influence of good laws under a free government, the ever favorite object of my heart, and the happy reward, as I trust, of our mutual cares, labors, and dangers.
    George Washington (1732–1799)

    Every nation ... have their refinements and grossiertes.... There is a balance ... of good and bad every where; and nothing but the knowing it is so can emancipate one half of the world from the prepossessions which it holds against the other—that [was] the advantage of travel ... it taught us mutual toleration; and mutual toleration ... taught us mutual love.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    It is with such eyes ... that a pair of angels exiled among men ... gaze at one another in mutual recognition.
    Stendhal [Marie Henri Beyle] (1783–1842)
