Geological Society

Famous quotes containing the words geological and/or society:

    The crystal sphere of thought is as concentrical as the geological structure of the globe. As our soils and rocks lie in strata, concentric strata, so do all men’s thinkings run laterally, never vertically.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Society never advances. It recedes as fast on one side as it gains on the other.... Society acquires new arts, and loses old instincts.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
