Private Consumption

Famous quotes containing the words private and/or consumption:

    stop the darkness and its amputations
    and find the real McCoy
    in the private holiness
    of my hands.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Books constitute capital. A library book lasts as long as a house, for hundreds of years. It is not, then, an article of mere consumption but fairly of capital, and often in the case of professional men, setting out in life, it is their only capital.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
