Transatlantic Slave Trade

Famous quotes containing the words slave and/or trade:

    Do not discourage your children from hoarding, if they have a taste to it; whoever lays up his penny rather than part with it for a cake, at least is not the slave of gross appetite; and shows besides a preference always to be esteemed, of the future to the present moment.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    Teaching your child a trade is better than giving him a thousand ounces of gold.
    Chinese proverb.
