Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or men:

    “a notable prince that was called King John;
    And he ruled England with main and with might,
    For he did great wrong, and maintained little right.”
    —Unknown. King John and the Abbot of Canterbury (l. 2–4)

    “Undoubtedly equality of goods is just; but, being unable to cause might to obey justice, men has made it just to obey might. Unable to strengthen justice, they have justified might—so that the just and the strong should unite, and there should be peace, which is the sovereign good.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
