Famous quotes containing the word country:

    “Between richer and poorer classes in a free country a mutually respecting antagonism is much healthier than pity on the one hand and dependence on the other, as is, perhaps, the next best thing to fraternal feeling.”
    —Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
