Famous quotes containing the words surveying and/or recovery:
“As for my own business, even that kind of surveying which I could do with most satisfaction my employers do not want.

When I observe that there are different ways of surveying, my employer commonly asks which will give him the most land, not which is most correct.”

“Walking, and leaping, and praising God.”
—Bible: New Testament Acts, 3:8.
