"A goose flies by a chart which the Royal Geographical Society could not mend." ― Oliver Wendell Holmes Topic(s): Society More From Oliver Wendell Holmes "Lawyers spend a great deal of their time shoveling smoke." "Old age is fifteen years older than I am." "Where we love is home – home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts." More In Society "Society is based on the assumption that everyone is alike and no one is alive."― Hugh Kingsmill "The key to organizing an alternative society is to organize people around what they can do, and more importantly, what they want to do."― Abbie Hoffman "Since I have come to America, I am often asked whether my next novel will be set in America. I don’t think it will. I think I will be living in America for some time to come, but while living in America, I would like to write about Japanese society from the outside."― Haruki Murakami
