Establish

Famous quotes containing the word establish:

“Some people are like ants. Give them a warm day and a piece of ground and they start digging. There the similarity ends. Ants keep on digging. Most people don’t. They establish contact with the soil, absorb so much vernal vigor that they can’t stay in one place, and desert the fork or spade to see how the rhubarb is coming and whether the asparagus is yet in sight.”
—Hal Borland (1900–1978)

“If you want to establish an international presence you can’t do so from New York. You need the consecration of Paris.”
—Oscar De La Renta (b. 1932)

“Reinhold Niebuhr observes that the sad duty of politics is to establish justice in a sinful world.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
