Older Persons

Famous quotes containing the words older and/or persons:

    Music at its best is not in need of novelty; indeed, the older it is, the more one is accustomed to it, the stronger its effect.

    In strict science, all persons underlie the same condition of an infinite remoteness. Shall we fear to cool our love by mining for the metaphysical foundation of this elysian temple? Shall I not be as real as the things I see? If I am, I shall not fear to know them for what they are.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
