Famous quotes containing the words pocket and/or sandwich:
“They would have me as familiar with men’s pockets as their
gloves or their handkerchiefs; which makes much against my
manhood, if I should take from another’s pocket to put into
mine; for it is plain pocketing up of wrongs.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The result of civilization, at the Sandwich Islands and elsewhere, is found productive to the civilizers, destructive to the civilizees. It is said to be compensation—a very philosophical word; but it appears to be very much on the principle of the old game, “You lose, I win”: good philosophy for the winner.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
