Famous quotes containing the word washington:

    “Thou who, sinless, yet hast known
    All of man’s infirmity!
    Then, from Thine eternal throne,
    Jesus, look with pitying eye.”

    “When you wish upon a star your dreams come true.”
    —Ned Washington (190l–1976)

    “I do not mean to exclude altogether the idea of patriotism. I know it exists, and I know it has done much in the present contest. But I will venture to assert, that a great and lasting war can never be supported on this principle alone. It must be aided by a prospect of interest, or some reward.”
    —George Washington (1732–1799)
