Famous quotes containing the words company and/or called:
“I hate the prostitution of the name of friendship to signify modish and worldly alliances. I much prefer the company of ploughboys and tin-peddlers, to the silken and perfumed amity which celebrates its days of encounter by a frivolous display, by rides in a curricle, and dinners at the best taverns.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“When we called Papa, Papa,
life was comfortable.
When our children called us Papa, Papa,
life was a torment.”
—Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.
