Famous quotes containing the word david:

    How does it become a man to behave toward this American government to-day? I answer, that he cannot without disgrace be associated with it. I cannot for an instant recognize that political organization as my government which is the slave’s government also.
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
