Famous quotes containing the words national, guard and/or ribbon:

    “Maybe it’s understandable what a history of failures America’s foreign policy has been. We are, after all, a country full of people who came to America to get away from foreigners. Any prolonged examination of the U.S. government reveals foreign policy to be America’s miniature schnauzer—a noisy but small and useless part of the national household.”
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)

    “Those who guard their mouths preserve their lives; those who open wide their lips come to ruin.”
    —Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 13:3.

    “I’ll tell you how the Sun rose—
    A Ribbon at a time—”
    —Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
