Famous quotes containing the words company and/or usage:
“We’re too unseparate. And going home
From company means coming to our senses.”

Might be filled up, as vainly as before,
With the sad usage of all sorts of sages,
Who in his life-time, each was deemed a bore!
The loftiest minds outrun their tardy ages.”
