Humans Consumed

Famous quotes containing the words humans and/or consumed:

“The worst condition of humans is when they lose knowledge and control of themselves.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

“If you teach a poor young man to shave himself, and keep his razor in order, you may contribute more to the happiness of his life than in giving him a thousand guineas. This sum may be soon spent, the regret only remaining of having foolishly consumed it; but in the other case, he escapes the frequent vexation of waiting for barbers, and of their sometimes dirty fingers, offensive breaths, and dull razors.”
—Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)
