Famous quotes containing the words independent, light and/or artillery:

    I’d like to come back as an independent woman who has more ambition than I have.
    Jenny Bird (b. c. 1937)

    Another success is the post-office, with its educating energy augmented by cheapness and guarded by a certain religious sentiment in mankind; so that the power of a wafer or a drop of wax or gluten to guard a letter, as it flies over sea over land and comes to its address as if a battalion of artillery brought it, I look upon as a fine meter of civilization.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
