Car Set Owned

Famous quotes containing the words car, set and/or owned:

    Fifty years from now, it will not matter what kind of car you drove, what kind of house you lived in, how much you had in your bank account, or what your clothes looked like, But the world may be a little better because you were important in the life of a child.
    —Anonymous. Quoted in The Winning Family, by Louise Hart, ch. 1 (1987)

    They roused him with muffins—they roused him with ice—
    They roused him with mustard and cress—
    They roused him with jam and judicious advice—
    They set him conundrums to guess.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    Speak as you think, be what you are, pay your debts of all kinds. I prefer to be owned as sound and solvent, and my word as good as my bond, and to be what cannot be skipped, or dissipated, or undermined, to all the eclat in the universe. This reality is the foundation of friendship, religion, poetry, and art.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
