Army Ammunition Plant

Famous quotes containing the words army and/or plant:

    Private property is held sacred in all good governments, and particularly in our own. Yet shall the fear of invading it prevent a general from marching his army over a cornfield or burning a house which protects the enemy? A thousand other instances might be cited to show that laws must sometimes be silent when necessity speaks.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)

    He who eats the fruit should at least plant the seed; ay, if possible, a better seed than that whose fruit he has enjoyed.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
