Famous quotes containing the word anthony:

    ... God allows the wheat and the tares to grow up together, and ... the tares frequently get the start of the wheat and kill it out. The only difference between the wheat and human beings is that the latter have intellect and ought to combine and pull out the tares, root and branch.
    —Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
