Famous quotes containing the words rose and/or macaulay:

    In the actual world—the painful kingdom of time and place—dwell care, and canker, and fear. With thought, with the ideal, is immortal hilarity, the rose of joy.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Logicians may reason about abstractions. But the great mass of men must have images. The strong tendency of the multitude in all ages and nations to idolatry can be explained on no other principle.
    —Thomas Babington Macaulay (1800–1859)
