Famous quotes containing the words council and/or meeting:
“There by some wrinkled stones round a leafless tree
With beards askew, their eyes dull and wild
Twelve ragged men, the council of charity
Wandering the face of the earth a fatherless child....”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“They are universal places, like churches, hallowed meeting places of all mankind.”
