Short Selling

Famous quotes containing the words short and/or selling:

    Still let my tyrants know, I am not doomed to wear
    Year after year in gloom, and desolate despair;
    A messenger of Hope comes every night to me,
    And offers for short life, eternal liberty.
    Emily Brontë (1818–1848)

    The only person really soiled with trade
    I ever stumbled on in old New Hampshire
    Was someone who had just come back ashamed
    From selling things in California.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
