Famous quotes containing the word bond:
“Mans characteristic privilege is that the bond he accepts is not physical but moral; that is, social. He is governed not by a material environment brutally imposed on him, but by a conscience superior to his own, the superiority of which he feels. Because the greater, better part of his existence transcends the body, he escapes the bodys yoke, but is subject to that of society.”
—Emile Durkheim (18581917)
“The principle of subordination is the great bond of union and harmony through the universe.”
—Catherine E. Beecher (18001878)
“Wedding is great Junos crown,
O blessed bond of board and bed!
Tis Hymen peoples every town,
High wedlock then be honorèd.
Honor, high honor, and renown
To Hymen, god of every town!”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
