Strana 251 - The things which have the greatest value in use have frequently little or no value in exchange; and, on the contrary, those which have the greatest value in exchange have frequently little or no value in use.
Strana 1 - Too justly I may fear ! Still caring, despairing, Must be my bitter doom ; My woes here shall close ne'er, But with the closing tomb...
Strana 526 - Some are good and let dearly; while some, 'tis well known, Are so dear, and so bad, they are best let alone. Will Waddle, whose temper was studious and lonely, Hired lodgings that took Single Gentlemen only ; But Will was so fat, he appeared like a tun, Or like two Single Gentlemen rolled into One.
Strana 251 - Nothing is more useful than water: but it will purchase scarce anything; scarce anything can be had in exchange for it. ' A diamond, on the contrary, has scarce any value in use; but a very great quantity of other goods may frequently be had in exchange for it.
Strana 525 - Our toils obscure, and a' that ; The rank is but the guinea's stamp, The man's the gowd for a' that ! What tho' on hamely fare we dine, Wear hoddin gray, and a' that ; Gie fools their silks, and knaves their wine, A man's a man, for a

Strana 220 - I cannot expect it will be long sustained, unless I immediately clear it. Even now, I believe it is at a crisis — my friends have no money to send me till the land is sold; and my creditors will not wait till then. You know what the consequence would be.
Strana 49 - Majefty has the confolation of reflecting, that the continuance of the calamities of war can be imputed only to the unjuft and exorbitant views of his enemies; and his Majefty, looking forward with anxiety to the moment when they may be difpofed to aft on different principles, places, in the mean time, the fulleft reliance, under the protection of Providence, on the wifdom and firm...
Strana 326 - Doulah, I am told, was very fond of making Huli Fools, though he was a Mussulman of the highest rank.
