Consumption Set

Famous quotes containing the words consumption and/or set:

    Books constitute capital. A library book lasts as long as a house, for hundreds of years. It is not, then, an article of mere consumption but fairly of capital, and often in the case of professional men, setting out in life, it is their only capital.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    One does not set fire to a world which is already lost.
    Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
