Closely Related

Famous quotes containing the words closely related, closely and/or related:

    As to the family, I have never understood how that fits in with the other ideals—or, indeed, why it should be an ideal at all. A group of closely related persons living under one roof; it is a convenience, often a necessity, sometimes a pleasure, sometimes the reverse; but who first exalted it as admirable, an almost religious ideal?
    Rose Macaulay (1881–1958)

    Let us together closely lie, and kisse,
    There is no labour, nor no shame in this;
    This hath pleas’d, doth please, and long will please; never
    Can this decay, but is beginning ever.
    Petronius Arbiter (d.A.D. 66)

    The content of a thought depends on its external relations; on the way that the thought is related to the world, not on the way that it is related to other thoughts.
    Jerry Alan Fodor (b. 1935)
