Among unequals what society
Can sort, what harmony, or true delight?
I love tranquil solitude
And such society
As is quiet, wise, and good.
Society in shipwreck is a comfort to all.
Society is now one polish'd horde,
Formed of two mighty tribes, the Bores and Bored.
The very mudsills of society. . . . We call them slaves. . . . But I will not characterize that class at the North with that term; but you have it. It is there, it is everywhere; it is eternal.
Society became my glittering bride,
And airy hopes my children.
There is
One great society alone on earth:
The noble living and the noble dead.
He might have proved a useful adjunct, if not an ornament to society.
Friendship! mysterious cement of the soul!
Sweetener of life! and solder of society!
For solitude sometimes is best society,
And short retirement urges sweet return.
Ah, you flavour everything; you are the vanilla of society.
There is a pleasure in the pathless woods;
There is a rapture on the lonely shore;
There is society, where none intrudes,
By the deep sea, and music in its roar:
I love not man the less, but Nature more.
Solitude is as needful to the imagination as society is wholesome for the character.
