Friends

Famous quotes containing the word friends:

    The slaves of power mind the cause they have to serve, because their own interest is concerned; but the friends of liberty always sacrifice their cause, which is only the cause of humanity, to their own spleen, vanity, and self-opinion.
    William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

    Those friends thou hast, and their adoption tried,
    Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    They’re two good old friends of mine. I call them Constitution and The Bill of Rights. A most dependable team for long journeys. Then I’ve got another one called Missouri Compromise. And a Supreme Court—a fine, dignified horse, though you have to push him on every now and then.
    Dan Totheroh (1895–1976)
