Vanishing Set

Famous quotes containing the words vanishing and/or set:

“Then, though I prize my friends, I cannot afford to talk with them and study their visions, lest I lose my own. It would indeed give me a certain household joy to quit this lofty seeking, this spiritual astronomy, or search of stars, and come down to warm sympathies with you; but then I know well I shall mourn always the vanishing of my mighty gods.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Do I dare set forth here the most important, the most useful rule of all education? it is not to save time, but to squander it.”
—Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778)
