Latin Market Counterpart

Famous quotes containing the words latin, market and/or counterpart:

    In my dealing with my child, my Latin and Greek, my accomplishments and my money stead me nothing; but as much soul as I have avails. If I am wilful, he sets his will against mine, one for one, and leaves me, if I please, the degradation of beating him by my superiority of strength. But if I renounce my will, and act for the soul, setting that up as umpire between us two, out of his young eyes looks the same soul; he reveres and loves with me.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I refuse to be. In
    the madhouse of the inhuman
    I refuse to live.
    With the wolves of the market place
    I refuse to howl ...
    Marina Tsvetaeva (1892–1941)

    The rushing Pequod, freighted with savages, laden with fire, and burning a corpse, and plunging into that blackness of darkness, seemed the material counterpart of her monomaniac commander’s soul.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
