Famous quotes containing the words business and/or degree:
“all the arts lose virtue

Of creatures going about their business among the equally
Earnest elements of nature.”

“When the world was half a thousand years younger all events had much sharper outlines than now. The distance between sadness and joy, between good and bad fortune, seemed to be much greater than for us; every experience had that degree of directness and absoluteness which joy and sadness still have in the mind of a child”
