Famous quotes containing the word individuals:
“[Government’s] true strength consists in leaving individuals and states as much as possible to themselves—in making itself felt, not in its power, but in its beneficence, not in its control, but in its protection, not in binding the states more closely to the center, but leaving each to move unobstructed in its proper orbit.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
“The world’s made up of individuals who don’t want to be heroes.”
—Brian Moore (b. 1921)
