Borgo Press September

Famous quotes containing the words press and/or september:

    Flee from the press and dwell with soothfastness;
    Suffice unto thy good though it be small,
    For hoard hath hate and climbing ticklishness,
    Press hath envy and weal blent overall;
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    Any one who knows what the worth of family affection is among the lower classes, and who has seen the array of little portraits stuck over a labourer’s fireplace ... will perhaps feel with me that in counteracting the tendencies, social and industrial, which every day are sapping the healthier family affections, the sixpenny photograph is doing more for the poor than all the philanthropists in the world.
    Macmillan’s Magazine (London, September 1871)
