Famous quotes containing the words market and/or garden:

    A sentimentalist, my dear Darlington, is a man who sees an absurd value in everything, and doesn’t know the market price of any single thing.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    A garden is like those pernicious machineries we read of, every month, in the newspapers, which catch a man’s coat-skirt or his hand, and draw in his arm, his leg, and his whole body to irresistible destruction.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
