Raising Company

Famous quotes containing the words raising and/or company:

    Too often I hear people say, “Well, at least so-and-so is a good person.” When did being a good person become the least thing we can say about another? And are we raising children who will someday find that this is the least thing they can say about themselves?
    Neil Kurshan (20th century)

    These studies which stimulate the young, divert the old, are an ornament in prosperity and a refuge and comfort in adversity; they delight us at home, are no impediment in public life, keep us company at night, in our travels, and whenever we retire to the country.
    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
