Famous quotes containing the words flower and/or class:

    “Slavery and servility have produced no sweet-scented flower annually, to charm the senses of men, for they have no real life: they are merely a decaying and a death, offensive to all healthy nostrils. We do not complain that they live, but that they do not get buried. Let the living bury them; even they are good for manure.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The class of citizens who provide at once their own food and their own raiment, may be viewed as the most truly independent and happy.”
    —James Madison (1751–1836)
