Famous quotes containing the word mutual:
“Whoever takes a view of the life of man ... will find it so beset and hemmd in with obligations of one kind or other, as to leave little room to suspect, that man can live to himself: and so closely has our creator linkd us together ... that we find this bond of mutual dependence ... is too strong to be broke.”
—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
