Famous quotes containing the word join:

    And out again I curve and flow
    To join the brimming river,
    For men may come and men may go,
    But I go on forever.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    When we start deceiving ourselves into thinking not that we want something or need something, not that it is a pragmatic necessity for us to have it, but that it is a moral imperative that we have it, then is when we join the fashionable madmen, and then is when the thin whine of hysteria is heard in the land, and then is when we are in bad trouble.
    Joan Didion (b. 1934)

    “To dine!” she shrieked in dragon-wrath.
    “To swallow wines all foam and froth!
    To simper at a table-cloth!”
    Say, can thy noble spirit stoop
    To join the gormandising troop
    Who find solace in the soup?
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
