Famous quotes containing the words earned, resource and/or network:

    It is pitiful when a man bears a name for convenience merely, who has earned neither name nor fame.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    If there is nothing new on the earth, still the traveler always has a resource in the skies. They are constantly turning a new page to view. The wind sets the types on this blue ground, and the inquiring may always read a new truth there.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Parents need all the help they can get. The strongest as well as the most fragile family requires a vital network of social supports.
    Bernice Weissbourd (20th century)
