Absorbed Town

Famous quotes containing the words absorbed and/or town:

    Commitment, by its nature, frees us from ourselves and, while it stands us in opposition to some, it joins us with others similarly committed. Commitment moves us from the mirror trap of the self absorbed with the self to the freedom of a community of shared values.
    Michael Lewis (late 20th century)

    Keep the town for occasions, but the habits should be formed in retirement.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
