Famous quotes containing the words utilities and/or provide:
“Flowers and fruits are always fit presents; flowers, because they are a proud assertion that a ray of beauty outvalues all of the utilities of the world. These gay natures contrast with the somewhat stern countenance of ordinary nature: they are like music heard out of a work-house.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“A man must be sacrificed now and again
To provide for the next generation of men.”
—Amy Lowell (1874–1925)
