Famous quotes containing the words associate and/or groups:

    To associate with other like-minded people in small, purposeful groups is for the great majority of men and women a source of profound psychological satisfaction. Exclusiveness will add to the pleasure of being several, but at one; and secrecy will intensify it almost to ecstasy.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    Writers and politicians are natural rivals. Both groups try to make the world in their own images; they fight for the same territory.
    Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)
