Establish

Famous quotes containing the word establish:

    Reinhold Niebuhr observes that the sad duty of politics is to establish justice in a sinful world.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    To establish oneself in the world, one does all one can to seem established there already.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    There is great fear expressed on all sides lest this war shall be made a war for the negro. I am willing that it shall be. It is a war to found an empire on the negro in slavery, and shame on us if we do not make it a war to establish the negro in freedom—against whom the whole nation, North and South, East and West, in one mighty conspiracy, has combined from the beginning.
    Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
