Relations

Famous quotes containing the word relations:

“When any one of our relations was found to be a person of a very bad character, a troublesome guest, or one we desired to get rid of, upon his leaving my house I ever took care to lend him a riding-coat, or a pair of boots, or sometimes a horse of small value, and I always had the satisfaction of finding he never came back to return them.”
—Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)

“Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us; nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth.”
