Famous quotes containing the word buy:

    “Morning and evening
    Maids heard the goblins cry:
    ‘Come buy our orchard fruits,
    Come buy, come buy:”
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

    “Modern man, if he dared to be articulate about his concept of heaven, would describe a vision which would look like the biggest department store in the world, showing new things and gadgets, and himself having plenty of money with which to buy them. He would wander around open-mouthed in this heaven of gadgets and commodities, provided only that there were ever more and newer things to buy, and perhaps that his neighbors were just a little less privileged than he.”
    —Erich Fromm (1900–1980)

    “‘She has got rings on every finger,
    Round one of them she have got three.
    She have gold enough around her middle
    To buy Northumberland that belongs to thee.”
    —Unknown. Young Beichan (l. 61–64)
