Famous quotes containing the word benefits:

    “It is with benefits as with injuries in this respect, that we do not so much weigh the accidental good or evil they do us, as that which they were designed to do us.—That is, we consider no part of them so much as their intention.”
    —Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)

    “It is too late in the century for women who have received the benefits of co-education in schools and colleges, and who bear their full share in the world’s work, not to care who make the laws, who expound and who administer them.”
    —J. Ellen Foster (1840–1910)
