Famous quotes containing the words continue the, continue and/or legacy:

    “Do we call this the land of the free? What is it to be free from King George and continue the slaves of King Prejudice? What is it to be born free and not to live free? What is the value of any political freedom, but as a means to moral freedom? Is it a freedom to be slaves, or a freedom to be free, of which we boast?”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “They who know of no purer sources of truth, who have traced up its stream no higher, stand, and wisely stand, by the Bible and the Constitution, and drink at it there with reverence and humility; but they who behold where it comes trickling into this lake or that pool, gird up their loins once more, and continue their pilgrimage toward its fountain-head.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “What is popularly called fame is nothing but an empty name and a legacy from paganism.”
    —Desiderius Erasmus (c. 1466–1536)
