Cross Country

Famous quotes containing the words cross and/or country:

“Pilate with his question “What is truth?” is gladly trotted out these days as an advocate of Christ, so as to arouse the suspicion that everything known and knowable is an illusion and to erect the cross upon that gruesome background of the impossibility of knowledge.”

“If we are marked to die, we are enough
To do our country loss; and if to live,
The fewer men, the greater share of honour.”
