Safely

Famous quotes containing the word safely:

    Thou hast never in thy life
    Showed thy dear mother any courtesy,
    When she, poor hen, fond of no second brood,
    Has clucked thee to the wars, and safely home
    Loaden with honor.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Men are afraid to rock the boat in which they hope to drift safely through life’s currents, when, actually, the boat is stuck on a sandbar. They would be better off to rock the boat and try to shake it loose, or, better still, jump in the water and swim for the shore.
    Thomas Szasz (b. 1920)

    We can safely abandon the doctrine of the eighties, namely that the rich were not working because they had too little money, the poor because they had much.
    John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)
