Famous quotes containing the words commercial and/or bank:

    There is every reason to rejoice with those self-styled prophets of commercial disaster, those harbingers of gloom,
    Over the imminent lateness of the denouement that, advancing slowly, never arrives,
    At the same time keeping the door open to a tongue-in-cheek attitude on the part of the perpetrators....
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    on a May morwening upon Malverne hilles
    Me befel a ferly, of fairye me thoughte;
    I was wery ofwandred and wente me to reste
    Under a brod bank by a bournes side;
    And as I lay and lenede and lookede on the watres,
    I slomerede into a sleeping, it swyede so merye.
    William Langland (1330–1400)
