Risk Increase

Famous quotes containing the words risk and/or increase:

“It is not a piece of fine feminine Spitalfields silk—but is of the horrible texture of a fabric that should be woven of ships’ cables & hausers. A Polar wind blows through it, & birds of prey hover over it. Warn all gentle fastidious people from so much as peeping into the book—on risk of a lumbago & sciatics.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)

“It shows nobility to be willing to increase your debt to a man to whom you already owe much.”
—Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
