Quotations for owner

The house shows the owner. [ English Proverb, collected by George Herbert ]

The foot of the owner is manure for the farm. [ Spanish Proverb ]

O, reputation! dearer far than life.
Thou precious balsam, lovely, sweet of smell.
Whose cordial drops once spilt by some rash hand,
Not all the owner's care, nor the repenting toil
Of the rude spiller, ever can collect
To its first purity and native sweetness. [ Sewell ]
