Somerset Senior

Famous quotes containing the words somerset and/or senior:

    Men have an extraordinarily erroneous opinion of their position in nature; and the error is ineradicable.
    —W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1966)

    I suffer whenever I see that common sight of a parent or senior imposing his opinion and way of thinking and being on a young soul to which they are totally unfit. Cannot we let people be themselves, and enjoy life in their own way? You are trying to make that man another you. One’s enough.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
