Famous quotes containing the words mary ann, ann and/or horton:

    ... the mistakes that we male and female mortals make when we have our own way might fairly raise some wonder that we are so fond of it.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    For what is love itself, for the one we love best?—an enfolding of immeasurable cares which yet are better than any joys outside our love.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    If love closes, the self contracts and hardens: the mind having nothing else to occupy its attention and give it that change and renewal it requires, busies itself more and more with self-feeling, which takes on narrow and disgusting forms, like avarice, arrogance and fatuity.
    —Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
