Mercantile Mutual Cup

Famous quotes containing the words mercantile, mutual and/or cup:

    What should I have known or written had I been a quiet, mercantile politician or a lord in waiting? A man must travel, and turmoil, or there is no existence.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    Every nation ... have their refinements and grossiertes.... There is a balance ... of good and bad every where; and nothing but the knowing it is so can emancipate one half of the world from the prepossessions which it holds against the other—that [was] the advantage of travel ... it taught us mutual toleration; and mutual toleration ... taught us mutual love.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    I know it does make people happy, but to me it is just like having a cup of tea.
