Real Exchange Rate

Famous quotes containing the words real, exchange and/or rate:

    Without words to objectify and categorize our sensations and place them in relation to one another, we cannot evolve a tradition of what is real in the world.
    Ruth Hubbard (b. 1924)

    Love is often nothing but a favorable exchange between two people who get the most of what they can expect, considering their value on the personality market.
    Erich Fromm (1900–1980)

    I don’t know but a book in a man’s brain is better off than a book bound in calf—at any rate it is safer from criticism. And taking a book off the brain, is akin to the ticklish & dangerous business of taking an old painting off a panel—you have to scrape off the whole brain in order to get at it with due safety—& even then, the painting may not be worth the trouble.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
