Famous quotes containing the words grant and/or mackay:

    Not necessity, not desire—no, the love of power is the demon of mankind. Grant them everything, health, food, housing, entertainment—they are and remain unhappy and anxious: for the demon waits and waits, and wants to be satisfied.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    REST IN PEACE. THE MISTAKE SHALL NOT BE REPEATED.
