Grand Chapter Meeting

Famous quotes containing the words grand, chapter and/or meeting:

    Unpretending mediocrity is good, and genius is glorious; but a weak flavor of genius in an essentially common person is detestable. It spoils the grand neutrality of a commonplace character, as the rinsings of an unwashed wine-glass spoil a draught of fair water.
    Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)

    When one man dies, one chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language.
    John Donne (c. 1572–1631)

    When one drinks with a friend, a thousand cups are not enough, but when there is no meeting of minds, half a sentence can be too much.
    Chinese proverb.
