Famous quotes containing the words based and/or nationality:
“Foster the labor of our country by an undeviating metallic currency ... always recollecting that if labor is depressed neither commerce nor manufactures can flourish, as they are both based upon the production of labor, produced from the earth, or the mineral world.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
“If nationality is consent, the state is compulsion.”
—Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881)
