Safely

Famous quotes containing the word safely:

    The telephone gives us the happiness of being together yet safely apart.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    A well-proportioned mind is one which shows no particular bias; one of which we may safely say that it will never cause its owner to be confined as a madman, tortured as a heretic, or crucified as a blasphemer. Also, on the other hand, that it will never cause him to be applauded as a prophet, revered as a priest, or exalted as a king. Its usual blessings are happiness and mediocrity.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    Hunger is never delicate; they who are seldom gorged to the full with praise may be safely fed with gross compliments, for the appetite must be satisfied before it is disgusted.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
