Authority Scores

Famous quotes containing the words authority and/or scores:

    It is proper to take alarm at the first experiment on our liberties.... Who does not see that the same authority which can establish Christianity, in exclusion of all other Religions, may establish with the same ease any particular sect of Christians, in exclusion of all other sects?
    James Madison (1751–1836)

    So, Willy, let you and me be wipers
    Of scores out with all men—especially pipers;
    And, whether they pipe us free, from rats or from mice,
    If we’ve promised them aught, let us keep our promise.
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)
