Quotations for meeting

The oil and wine of merry meeting. [ Washington Irving ]

Say, what other metre is it
Than the meeting of the eyes?
Nature poureth into nature
Through the channels of that feature
Riding on the ray of sight,
Fleeter far than whirlwinds go.
Or for service, or delight,
Hearts to hearts their meaning show. [ Emerson ]

The grave is the general meeting-place. [ Proverb ]

To feed were best at home;
From thence the sauce to meat is ceremony;
Meeting were bare without it. [ William Shakespeare ]

Art and science have their meeting-point in method. [ Edward Bulwer-Lytton ]

Like those dogs, that meeting with nobody else bite one another. [ Proverb ]

The joys of meeting pay the pangs of absence, Else who could bear it? [ Rowe ]

A husband is a sort of promissory note - a woman is tired of meeting him. [ Oscar Wilde, A Woman of No Importance ]

He that prepares for ill gives the blow a meeting, and breaks its stroke. [ Proverb ]

There is pleasure in meeting the eyes of those to whom we have done good. [ La Bruyere ]

Her face is like the Milky Way in the sky, - A meeting of gentle lights without a name. [ Sir John Suckling ]

The chance meeting, the unplanned outing, and the unexpected diversion that so often come unsought in the passing days, afford the common channels of happiness. [ Henry D. Chapin ]

The first time I read an excellent book, it is to me just as if I had gained a new friend. When I read over a book I have perused before, it resembles the meeting with an old one. [ Goldsmith ]

Feelings are always purest and most glowing in the hour of meeting and farewell; like the glaciers, which are transparent and rose-hued only at sunrise and sunset, but throughout the day grey and cold. [ Jean Paul ]

An observant man, in all his intercourse with society and the world, carries a pencil constantly in his hand, and, unperceived, marks on every person and thing the figure expressive of its value, and therefore instantly on meeting that person or thing again, knows what kind and degree of attention to give it. This is to make something of experience. [ John Foster ]

The whole difference between a man of genius and other men, it has been said a thousand times, and most truly, is that the first remains in great part a child, seeing with the large eyes of children, in perpetual wonder, not conscious of much knowledge - conscious, rather, of infinite ignorance, and yet infinite power; a fountain of eternal admiration, delight, and creative force within him meeting the ocean of visible and governable things around him. [ Ruskin ]
