Famous quotes containing the words admission and/or note:

    The admission of the States of Wyoming and Idaho to the Union are events full of interest and congratulation, not only to the people of those States now happily endowed with a full participation in our privileges and responsibilities, but to all our people. Another belt of States stretches from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
    Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)

    The finch, the sparrow, and the lark,
    The plainsong cuckoo grey,
    Whose note full many a man doth mark
    And dares not answer nay.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
