Famous quotes containing the words close and/or relationship:
“The shades of respectability begin to close about the greying head.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“Every relationship that does not raise us up pulls us down, and vice versa; this is why men usually sink down somewhat when they take wives while women are usually somewhat raised up. Overly spiritual men require marriage every bit as much as they resist it as bitter medicine.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
