Famous quotes containing the words research on, research, halfway and/or houses:

    Men talk, but rarely about anything personal. Recent research on friendship ... has shown that male relationships are based on shared activities: men tend to do things together rather than simply be together.... Female friendships, particularly close friendships, are usually based on self-disclosure, or on talking about intimate aspects of their lives.
    Bettina Arndt (20th century)

    Bettina Arndt (20th century)

    No; truth, being alive, was not halfway between anything. It was only to be found by continuous excursions into either realm, and though proportion is the final secret, to espouse it at the outset is to ensure sterility.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    Trust him to have his bitter politics
    Against his unacquaintances the rich
    Who sleep in houses of their own, though mortgaged.
    Conservatives, they don’t know what to save.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
