Root Account

Famous quotes containing the words root and/or account:

“But a cultivated man becomes ashamed of his property, out of new respect for his nature. Especially he hates what he has if he see that it is accidental,—came to him by inheritance, or gift, or crime; then he feels that it is not having; it does not belong to him, has no root in him and merely lies there because no revolution or no robber takes it away.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“For Hades is mighty in calling men to account below the earth, and with a mind that records in tablets he surveys all things.”
—Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
