Famous quotes containing the words united and/or kingdom:

    It was evident that, both on account of the feudal system and the aristocratic government, a private man was not worth so much in Canada as in the United States; and, if your wealth in any measure consists in manliness, in originality and independence, you had better stay here. How could a peaceable, freethinking man live neighbor to the Forty-ninth Regiment? A New-Englander would naturally be a bad citizen, probably a rebel, there,—certainly if he were already a rebel at home.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 10:25.

    Jesus.
