Famous quotes containing the word prosperity:
“Both of us felt more anxiety about the South—about the colored people especially—than about anything else sinister in the result. My hope of a sound currency will somehow be realized; civil service reform will be delayed; but the great injury is in the South. There the Amendments will be nullified, disorder will continue, prosperity to both whites and colored people will be pushed off for years.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“So now prosperity begins to mellow
And drop into the rotten mouth of death.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“It is, generally, in the season of prosperity that men discover their real temper, principles, and designs.”
—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
