Famous quotes containing the word trade:

    The most conservative man in the world is the British Trade Unionist when you want to change him.
    Ernest Bevin (1881–1951)

    Literature flourishes best when it is half a trade and half an art.
    —W.R. (William Ralph)

    People run away from the name subsidy. It is a subsidy. I am not afraid to call it so. It is paid for the purpose of giving a merchant marine to the whole country so that the trade of the whole country will be benefitted thereby, and the men running the ships will of course make a reasonable profit.... Unless we have a merchant marine, our navy if called upon for offensive or defensive work is going to be most defective.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
