Small Relief

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or relief:

    The thing is plain. All that men really understand, is confined to a very small compass; to their daily affairs and experience; to what they have an opportunity to know, and motives to study or practise. The rest is affectation and imposture.
    William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    It is said that he once had a sore toe that so annoyed him that he went to the woodpile and chopped it off with an axe, quoting the Scripture, ‘If thy foot offend thee, cut it off.’
    —For the State of Rhode Island, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
