Famous quotes containing the words george and/or colman:

    Compare society to a boat. Her progress through the water will not depend upon the exertion of her crew, but upon the exertion devoted to propelling her. This will be lessened by any expenditure of force in fighting among themselves, or in pulling in different directions.
    —Henry George (1839–1897)

    It’s better that it should make you sick than that you don’t eat it at all.
