Famous quotes containing the word isolation:
“But your isolation must not be mechanical, but spiritual, that is, must be elevation.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Only connect! That was the whole of her sermon. Only connect the prose and the passion, and both will be exalted, and human love will be seen at its height. Live in fragments no longer. Only connect, and the beast and the monk, robbed of the isolation that is life to either, will die.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“I am greatly pleased with the public, authentic isolation in which we two, you and I, now find ourselves. It is wholly in accord with our attitude and our principles.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
