Establish

Famous quotes containing the word establish:

    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)

    I allude to these facts to show that, so far from the Supper being a tradition in which men are fully agreed, there has always been the widest room for difference of opinion upon this particular. Having recently given particular attention to this subject, I was led to the conclusion that Jesus did not intend to establish an institution for perpetual observance when he ate the Passover with his disciples; and further, to the opinion that it is not expedient to celebrate it as we do.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    I am above the weakness of seeking to establish a sequence of cause and effect, between the disaster and the atrocity.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
