Stars Traded

Famous quotes containing the words stars and/or traded:

    We begin with friendships, and all our youth is a reconnoitering and recruiting of the holy fraternity they shall combine for the salvation of men. But so the remoter stars seem a nebula of united light, yet there is no group which a telescope will not resolve; and the dearest friends are separated by impassable gulfs.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    When we traded the buffalo for a mare,
    we had no milk to drink,
    and we still had droppings to clean up.
    Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.
