Short Selling

Famous quotes containing the words short and/or selling:

    It is indeed very possible, that the Persons we laugh at may in the main of their Characters be much wiser Men than our selves; but if they would have us laugh at them, they must fall short of us in those Respects which stir up this Passion.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)

    The only person really soiled with trade
    I ever stumbled on in old New Hampshire
    Was someone who had just come back ashamed
    From selling things in California.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
