Close Relationship

Famous quotes containing the words close and/or relationship:

    Listen, little Elia: draw your chair up close to the edge of the precipice and I’ll tell you a story.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    Henry David Thoreau, who never earned much of a living or sustained a relationship with any woman that wasn’t brotherly—who lived mostly under his parents’ roof ... who advocated one day’s work and six days “off” as the weekly round and was considered a bit of a fool in his hometown ... is probably the American writer who tells us best how to live comfortably with our most constant companion, ourselves.
    Edward Hoagland (b. 1932)
