Famous quotes containing the words turf and/or system:
“One turf shall serve as pillow for us both;
One heart, one bed, two bosoms, and one troth.”

“Nobody is glad in the gladness of another, and our system is one of war, of an injurious superiority. Every child of the Saxon race is educated to wish to be first. It is our system; and a man comes to measure his greatness by the regrets, envies, and hatreds of his competitors.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
