Neighbor

Famous quotes containing the word neighbor:

    West of this place, down in the neighbor bottom,
    The rank of osiers by the murmuring stream
    Left on your right hand brings you to the place.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Sometimes a neighbor whom we have disliked a lifetime for his arrogance and conceit lets fall a single commonplace remark that shows us another side, another man, really; a man uncertain, and puzzled, and in the dark like ourselves.
    Willa Cather (1873–1947)

    In the race for wealth, a neighbor tries to outdo his neighbor, but this strife is good for men. For the potter envies potter, and the carpenter the carpenter, and the beggar rivals the beggar, and the singer the singer.
    Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)
