Famous quotes containing the words governing and/or vessel:

    We are apt to say that a foreign policy is successful only when the country, or at any rate the governing class, is united behind it. In reality, every line of policy is repudiated by a section, often by an influential section, of the country concerned. A foreign minister who waited until everyone agreed with him would have no foreign policy at all.
    —A.J.P. (Alan John Percivale)

    There are no galley-slaves in the royal vessel of divine love—every man works his oar voluntarily!
    St. Francis De Sales (1567–1622)
