Hawaiian Slack Key

Famous quotes containing the words slack and/or key:

    In marriage, a man becomes slack and selfish, and undergoes a fatty degeneration of his moral being.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    The key to the age may be this, or that, or the other, as the young orators describe; the key to all ages is—Imbecility: imbecility in the vast majority of men, at all times, and even in heroes, in all but certain eminent moments: victims of gravity, customs and fear. This gives force to the strong,—that the multitude have no habit of self-reliance or original action.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
