Sound Economy

Famous quotes containing the words sound and/or economy:

    “the children call, and I
    Thy shepherd pipe, and sweet is every sound,
    Sweeter thy voice, but every sound is sweet;
    Myriads of rivulets hurrying through the lawn,
    The moan of doves in immemorial elms,
    And murmuring of innumerable bees.’”
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    “The counting-room maxims liberally expounded are laws of the Universe. The merchant’s economy is a coarse symbol of the soul’s economy. It is, to spend for power, and not for pleasure.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
