Question 384.f: Living on the edge
(pic 1)
(pic 2)
The phrase, in relation to the 2 pictures, appears in a New York Herald editorial dated 10 August 1872 and the Encyclopædia Britannica and the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography both quote it without questioning its veracity. But its amongst the most famous phrases uttered, often quoted when one meets another after a very long time, and after having lost touch.
Clue: To further elaborate ], pic 1 refers to the subject of the phrase, uttered by pic 2, during pic 1's travels in a certain country.
Question:
1) ID the pics
2) The phrase
