Famous quotes containing the words social and/or events:
“Nobody can write the life of a man but those who have eat and drunk and lived in social intercourse with him.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“If I have renounced the search of truth, if I have come into the port of some pretending dogmatism, some new church, some Schelling or Cousin, I have died to all use of these new events that are born out of prolific time into multitude of life every hour. I am as bankrupt to whom brilliant opportunities offer in vain. He has just foreclosed his freedom, tied his hands, locked himself up and given the key to another to keep.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
