Famous quotes containing the word business:

    ...we shall never be the people we should and might be until we have learned that it is the first and most important business of a nation to protect its women, not by any puling sentimentality of queenship, chivalry or angelhood, but by making it possible for them to earn an honest living.
    Katharine Pearson Woods (1853–1923)

    Our business in this world is not to succeed, but to continue to fail, in good spirits.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    In my cheapest moments I am apt to think that it is n’t my business to be “seeking the spirit,” but as much its business to be seeking me.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
