Famous quotes containing the words roger and/or sale:

    I say that Roger Casement
    Did what he had to do,
    He died upon the gallows
    But that is nothing new.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I hate this shallow Americanism which hopes to get rich by credit, to get knowledge by raps on midnight tables, to learn the economy of the mind by phrenology, or skill without study, or mastery without apprenticeship, or the sale of goods through pretending that they sell, or power through making believe you are powerful, or through a packed jury or caucus, bribery and “repeating” votes, or wealth by fraud.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
