Quotations for shops

Highways and streets have not all the thieves; shops have ten for one. [ Proverb ]

Some men, like modern shops, hang everything in their show windows; when one goes inside, nothing is to be found. [ Auerbach ]

The wine-shops breed, in physical atmosphere of malaria and a moral pestilence of envy and vengeance, the men of crime and revolution. [ Charles Dickens ]

Proverbs are somewhat analogous to those medical formulas which, being in frequent use, are kept ready made up in the chemists' shops, and which often save the framing of a distinct prescription. [ Whately ]
