Famous quotes containing the words national, honors and/or council:
“The American, if he has a spark of national feeling, will be humiliated by the very prospect of a foreigner’s visit to Congress—these, for the most part, illiterate hacks whose fancy vests are spotted with gravy, and whose speeches, hypocritical, unctuous, and slovenly, are spotted also with the gravy of political patronage, these persons are a reflection on the democratic process rather than of it; they expose it in its process rather than of it; they expose it in its underwear.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
“There is a moment when god honors falsehood.”
—Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
“There by some wrinkled stones round a leafless tree

Wandering the face of the earth a fatherless child....”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
