Famous quotes containing the words mark and/or smith:

    “The mark of the man of the world is absence of pretension. He does not make a speech; he takes a low business-tone, avoids all brag, is nobody, dresses plainly, promises not at all, performs much, speaks in monosyllables, hugs his fact. He calls his employment by its lowest name, and so takes from evil tongues their sharpest weapon. His conversation clings to the weather and the news, yet he allows himself to be surprised into thought, and the unlocking of his learning and philosophy.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “What joy can the years bring half so sweet as the unhappiness they’ve taken away?”
    —Logan Pearsall Smith (1865–1946)
