Famous quotes containing the words union and/or settlement:
“The man whose whole activity is diverted to inner meditation becomes insensible to all his surroundings.

They are dissipated in futile imaginings, producing nothing external to themselves.”
—Emile Durkheim (18581917)
“The Puritans, to keep the remembrance of their unity one with another, and of their peaceful compact with the Indians, named their forest settlement CONCORD.”
