Famous quotes containing the words gordon and/or claimed:

    And had it been the dove from Noah’s ark,
    Returning there from her successful search,
    Which in their way that moment chanced to fall,
    They would have eat her, olive-branch and all.
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    In contrast with envy, which usually occurs between two people and is focused upon another person’s qualities or possessions, jealousy occurs when a third person becomes a threat to a dyad. Jealousy involves the loss or the impending loss of a relationship that one wants to hold onto, a relationship that is vital to personal fulfillment and claimed as one’s own.
    Carol S. Becker (b. 1942)
