Famous quotes containing the word share:

    “Friendship is but another name for an alliance with the follies and the misfortunes of others. Our own share of miseries is sufficient: why enter then as volunteers into those of another?”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “A soul that is reluctant to share does not as a rule have much of its own. Miserliness is here a symptom of meagerness.”
    —Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    “I feel the desire to be with you all the time. Oh, an occasional absence of a week or two is a good thing to give one the happiness of meeting again, but this living apart is in all ways bad. We have had our share of separate life during the four years of war. There is nothing in the small ambition of Congressional life, or in the gratified vanity which it sometimes affords, to compensate for separation from you. We must manage to live together hereafter. I can’t stand this, and will not.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
