Famous quotes containing the words world and/or group:

    “Desiccation of the world of sense,
    Evacuation of the world of fancy,
    Inoperancy of the world of spirit;
    This is the one way, and the other
    Is the same, not in movement
    But abstention from movement;”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “The conflict between the need to belong to a group and the need to be seen as unique and individual is the dominant struggle of adolescence.”
    —Jeanne Elium (20th century)
