MEETING
-
If e'er we meet hereafter, we shall meet
In happier climes, and on a safer shore.—ADDISON, Cato
-
Like driftwood spars which meet and pass
Upon the boundless ocean-plain,
So on the sea of life, alas!
Man nears man, meets, and leaves again.—MATTHEW ARNOLD, The Terrace at Berne
-
Why meet on the bridge of
Time to change one greeting and to part?—RICHARD BURTON, The Kasidah
-
Between cultivated minds the first interview is the best.—EMERSON
-
Ships that pass in the night, and speak each other in passing,
Only a signal shown and a distant voice in the darkness;
So on the ocean of life we pass and speak one another,
Only a look and a voice; then darkness again and a silence.—LONGFELLOW, Tales of a Wayside Inn
-
The joy of meeting not unmixed with pain.—LONGFELLOW, Morituri Salutamus
-
In life there are meetings which seem
Like a fate.—OWEN MEREDITH, Lucile
-
Some day, some day of days, threading the street
With idle, heedless pace,
Unlooking for such grace,
I shall behold your face!
Some day, some day of days, thus may we meet.—NORA PERRY, Some Day of Days
-
The joys of meeting pay the pangs of absence;
Else who could bear it?—NICHOLAS ROWE, Tamerlane
-
The meeting of these champions proud
Seemed like the bursting thunder-cloud.—SCOTT, The Lay of the Last Minstrel
-
Witch 1: When shall we three meet again
In thunder, lightning, or in rain?
Witch 2: When the hurlyburly's done,
When the battle's lost and won.—SHAKESPEARE, Macbeth
-
Hail fellow, well met.—SWIFT, My Lady's Lamentation
