Drawback Quotes

On the hidden cost behind almost every convenience.

Drawback quotes here work almost like a checklist of hidden downsides, from the obligation that comes with letter-writing to the distraction built into social media. That skepticism pairs naturally with our Aggressive page.

The only drawback is once the work is done you rarely see each other.

Quotes by John Philip Sousa
