Observation Wheel

Famous quotes containing the words observation and/or wheel:

    Men look on knowledge which they learn—or might learn—from others as they do on the most beautiful structures which are not their own: in outward objects, they would rather behold their own hogsty than their neighbor’s palace; and in mental ones, would prefer one grain of knowledge gained by their own observation to all the wisdom of a thousand Solomons.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)

    The wheel that squeaks the loudest
    Is the one that gets the grease.
    Josh Billings [Henry Wheeler Shaw] (1818–1885)
