Famous quotes containing the words free and/or settlers:
“Others apart sat on a Hill retird,
In thoughts more elevate, and reasond high
Of Providence, Foreknowledge, Will, and Fate,
Fixt Fate, free will, foreknowledge absolute,
And found no end, in wandring mazes lost.
Of good and evil much they argud then,
Of happiness and final misery,
Passion and Apathie, and glory and shame,
Vain wisdom all, and false Philosophie:”
—John Milton (16081674)
“When old settlers say One has to understand the country, what they mean is, You have to get used to our ideas about the native. They are saying, in effect, Learn our ideas, or otherwise get out; we dont want you.”
