Famous quotes containing the words world and/or heritage:

    “There is nothing in the world so enjoyable as a thorough-going monomania.”
    —Agnes Repplier (1858–1950)

    “There are some things which cannot be learned quickly, and time, which is all we have, must be paid heavily for their acquiring. They are the very simplest things and because it takes a man’s life to know them the little new that each man gets from life is very costly and the only heritage he has to leave.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
