Famous quotes containing the words closely and/or tied:
“[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)
“Mankind is a rope tied between beast and superman—a rope over an abyss.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
