Turkish Relations

Famous quotes containing the words turkish and/or relations:

    A man may grow rich in Turkey even, if he will be in all respects a good subject of the Turkish government.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    When any one of our relations was found to be a person of a very bad character, a troublesome guest, or one we desired to get rid of, upon his leaving my house I ever took care to lend him a riding-coat, or a pair of boots, or sometimes a horse of small value, and I always had the satisfaction of finding he never came back to return them.
    Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)
