together


"... You are much wanted in Paris. Everybody I see enquires after the time of your return. Do not, however, for god´s sake, think of settling in this country but let both of us spend the remainder of our days together on the same side of the Water. Come, however, to Paris in the mean time and we shall settle the plan of our future life together".

(Carta de Adam Smith, datada de Paris, 13 de Março de 1766, para David Hume em Londres, in Ernest C. Mossner and Ian S. Ross (eds.), The Correspondence of Adam Smith, Indianapolis: Liberty Classics, 1987, p. 112)
