Famous quotes containing the words notable and/or people:

    In one notable instance, where the United States Army and a hundred years of persuasion failed, a highway has succeeded. The Seminole Indians surrendered to the Tamiami Trail. From the Everglades the remnants of this race emerged, soon after the trail was built, to set up their palm-thatched villages along the road and to hoist tribal flags as a lure to passing motorists.
    —For the State of Florida, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    God of justice, God of mercy,
    Make us merciful and just!
    Help us see all your creation
    As from you a sacred trust.
    And when people cry in anguish
    For their own or others’ pain,
    Show us ways to make a difference
    O dear God, make us humane!
    Jane Parker Huber (b. 1926)
