Meeting Association

Famous quotes containing the words meeting and/or association:

“We would not be interested in human beings if we did not have the hope of someday meeting someone worse off than ourselves.”
—E.M. Cioran (b. 1911)

“The spiritual kinship between Lincoln and Whitman was founded upon their Americanism, their essential Westernism. Whitman had grown up without much formal education; Lincoln had scarcely any education. One had become the notable poet of the day; one the orator of the Gettsyburg Address. It was inevitable that Whitman as a poet should turn with a feeling of kinship to Lincoln, and even without any association or contact feel that Lincoln was his.”
—Edgar Lee Masters (1869–1950)
