Famous quotes containing the words mission and/or statement:

    “Man is eminently a storyteller. His search for a purpose, a cause, an ideal, a mission and the like is largely a search for a plot and a pattern in the development of his life story—a story that is basically without meaning or pattern.”
    —Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    “The new statement is always hated by the old, and, to those dwelling in the old, comes like an abyss of skepticism.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
