Famous quotes containing the words popular and/or destination:
“Both gossip and joking are intrinsically valuable activities. Both are essentially social activities that strengthen interpersonal bondswe do not tell jokes and gossip to ourselves. As popular activities that evade social restrictions, they often refer to topics that are inaccessible to serious public discussion. Gossip and joking often appear together: when we gossip we usually tell jokes and when we are joking we often gossip as well.”
—Aaron Ben-ZeEv, Israeli philosopher. The Vindication of Gossip, Good Gossip, University Press of Kansas (1994)
“A mans destination is his own village,
His own cooking fire, and his wifes cooking;
To sit in front of his own door at sunset
And see his grandson, and his neighbours grandson
Playing in the dust together.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
