Granted Dialogue Partner

Famous quotes containing the words granted, dialogue and/or partner:

    Maturity: among other things, the unclouded happiness of the child at play, who takes it for granted that he is at one with his play-mates.
    Dag Hammarskjöld (1905–1961)

    The true use of Shakespeare or of Cervantes, of Homer or of Dante, of Chaucer or of Rabelais, is to augment one’s own growing inner self.... The mind’s dialogue with itself is not primarily a social reality. All that the Western Canon can bring one is the proper use of one’s own solitude, that solitude whose final form is one’s confrontation with one’s own mortality.
    Harold Bloom (b. 1930)

    For sov’reign pow’r reign not alone,
    Grace is the partner of the throne;
    Thy grace and justice mighty Lord,
    Shall well divide our last reward.
    Isaac Watts (1674–1748)
