Famous quotes containing the words previous and/or owners:

    “Those who govern, having much business on their hands, do not generally like to take the trouble of considering and carrying into execution new projects. The best public measures are therefore seldom adopted from previous wisdom, but forced by the occasion.”
    —Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)

    “Slaves who have escaped to you from their owners shall not be given back to them.”
    —Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 23:15.
