Famous quotes containing the words relation to and/or relation:

    “Any relation to the land, the habit of tilling it, or mining it, or even hunting on it, generates the feeling of patriotism. He who keeps shop on it, or he who merely uses it as a support to his desk and ledger, or to his manufactory, values it less.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The difference between objective and subjective extension is one of relation to a context solely.”
    —William James (1842–1910)
