Total Compensation

Famous quotes containing the words total and/or compensation:

“The chief lesson of the Depression should never be forgotten. Even our liberty-loving American people will sacrifice their freedom and their democratic principles if their security and their very lives are threatened by another breakdown of our free enterprise system. We can no more afford another general depression than we can afford another total war, if democracy is to survive.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

“The only compensation which war offers for its manifold mischiefs, is in the great personal qualities to which it gives scope and occasion.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
