Selling Luxury

Famous quotes containing the words selling and/or luxury:

“You know, what I very well know, that I bought you. And I know, what perhaps you think I don’t know, you are now selling yourselves to somebody else; and I know, what you do not know, that I am buying another borough. May God’s curse light upon you all: may your houses be as open and common to all Excise Officers as your wifes and daughters were to me, when I stood for your scoundrel corporation.”
—Anthony Henley (d. 1745)

“There is a luxury in self-reproach. When we blame ourselves we feel no one else has a right to blame us.”
