Famous quotes containing the words barber and/or shop:

    No barber shaves so close but another finds his work.
    English proverb, collected in George Herbert, Outlandish Proverbs (1640)

    A generation which has passed through the shop has absorbed standards and ambitions which are not of those of spaciousness, and cannot get away from them. Everything with them is done as though for sale, and they naturally have in view the greatest possible benefit, profit and that end of the stuff that will make the best show.
    Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
