Peasant Associations

Famous quotes containing the words peasant and/or associations:

“The lord is the peasant that was,
The peasant is the lord that shall be.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Hardly a man in the world has an opinion upon morals, politics or religion which he got otherwise than through his associations and sympathies. Broadly speaking, there are none but corn-pone opinions. And broadly speaking, Corn-Pone stands for Self- Approval. Self-approval is acquired mainly from the approval of other people. The result is Conformity.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
