Farm Loan Associations

Famous quotes containing the words farm, loan and/or associations:

    “A farm is a good thing, when it begins and ends with itself, and does not need a salary, or a shop, to eke it out.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Neither a borrower nor a lender be,
    For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
    And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
    This above all: to thine own self be true,
    And it must follow, as the night the day,
    Thou canst not then be false to any man.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Writing prejudicial, off-putting reviews is a precise exercise in applied black magic. The reviewer can draw free- floating disagreeable associations to a book by implying that the book is completely unimportant without saying exactly why, and carefully avoiding any clear images that could capture the reader’s full attention.”
    —William Burroughs (b. 1914)
