Famous quotes containing the words penn and/or state:
“Men are generally more careful of the breed of their horses and dogs than of their children.”
—William Penn (1644–1718)
“People think they have taken quite an extraordinarily bold step forward when they have rid themselves of belief in hereditary monarchy and swear by the democratic republic. In reality, however, the state is nothing but a machine for the oppression of one class by another, and indeed in the democratic republic no less than in the monarchy.”
—Friedrich Engels (1820–1895)
