Famous quotes containing the words allan and/or chapman:

    I am above the weakness of seeking to establish a sequence of cause and effect, between the disaster and the atrocity.
    —Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    Is there something in trade that dessicates and flattens out, that turns men into dried leaves at the age of forty? Certainly there is. It is not due to trade but to intensity of self- seeking, combined with narrowness of occupation.... Business has destroyed the very knowledge in us of all other natural forces except business.
    —John Jay Chapman (1862–1933)
