Famous quotes containing the words company and/or history:

    “We’re too unseparate. And going home
    From company means coming to our senses.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “You that would judge me do not judge alone
    This book or that, come to this hallowed place
    Where my friends’ portraits hang and look thereon;
    Ireland’s history in their lineaments trace;
    Think where man’s glory most begins and ends
    And say my glory was I had such friends.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
