Famous quotes containing the words businesses and/or brands:

    “One of the first businesses of a sensible man is to know when he is beaten, and to leave off fighting at once.”
    —Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

    “On the other side, the conservative party, composed of the most moderate, able, and cultivated part of the population, is timid, and merely defensive of property. It vindicates no right, it aspires to no real good, it brands no crime, it proposes no generous policy, it does not build, nor write, nor cherish the arts, nor foster religion, nor establish schools, nor encourage science, nor emancipate the slave, nor befriend the poor, or the Indian, or the immigrant.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
