Exchange

Famous quotes containing the word exchange:

    We never exchange more than three words with a Friend in our lives on that level to which our thoughts and feelings almost habitually rise.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Love is often nothing but a favorable exchange between two people who get the most of what they can expect, considering their value on the personality market.
    Erich Fromm (1900–1980)

    The first place he went into was the Royal Exchange .... where men of all ages and all nations were assembled, with no other view than to barter for interest. The countenances of most of the people showed they were filled with anxiety; some indeed appeared pleased, but yet it was with a mixture of fear.... [David] resolved to stay no longer in a place where riches were esteemed goodness, and deceit, low cunning, and giving up all things to the love of gain were thought wisdom.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
