Service Show Host

Famous quotes containing the words service, show and/or host:

“We could not help being struck by the seeming, though innocent, indifference of Nature to these men’s necessities, while elsewhere she was equally serving others. Like a true benefactress, the secret of her service is unchangeableness. Thus is the busiest merchant, though within sight of his Lowell, put to pilgrim’s shifts, and soon comes to staff and scrip and scallop-shell.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Propositions show what they say: tautologies and contradictions show that they say nothing.”
—Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

“When the guests have left, the host is at peace.”
—Chinese proverb.
