Famous quotes containing the word treaties:

    “There can be no reconciliation where there is no open warfare. There must be a battle, a brave boisterous battle, with pennants waving and cannon roaring, before there can be peaceful treaties and enthusiastic shaking of hands.”
    —Mary Elizabeth Braddon (1837–1915)

    “There are secret articles in our treaties with the gods, of more importance than all the rest, which the historian can never know.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The fate of the State decides theirs: clauses of treaties determine their affections.”
    —Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)
