Famous quotes containing the words reserve and/or division:

    “Mutual repect implies discretion and reserve even in love itself; it means preserving as much liberty as possible to those whose life we share. We must distrust our instinct of intervention, for the desire to make one’s own will prevail is often disguised under the mask of solicitude.”
    —Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881)

    “The glory of the farmer is that, in the division of labors, it is his part to create. All trade rests at last on his primitive activity.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
