Swiss Banks

Famous quotes containing the words swiss and/or banks:

    “Nothing sets a person up more than having something turn out just the way it’s supposed to be, like falling into a Swiss snowdrift and seeing a big dog come up with a little cask of brandy round its neck.”
    —Claud Cockburn (1904–1981)

    “I live for those who love me,
    Whose hearts are kind and true;
    For the Heaven that smiles above me,
    And awaits my spirit too;
    For all human ties that bind me,
    For the task by God assigned me,
    For the bright hopes yet to find me,
    And the good that I can do.”
    —George Linnaeus Banks (1821–1881)
