Promise/society

Famous quotes containing the words promise and/or society:

    Despair is perfectly compatible with a good dinner, I promise you.
    William Makepeace Thackeray (1811–1863)

    In the society of men the truth resides now less in what things are than in what they are not. Our social realities are so ugly if seen in the light of exiled truth, and beauty is no longer possible if it is not a lie.
    —R.D. (Ronald David)
