Defence Support

Famous quotes containing the words defence and/or support:

    “Education must have two foundations—morality as a support for virtue, prudence as a defence for self against the vices of others. By letting the balance incline to the side of morality, you only make dupes or martyrs; by letting it incline to the other, you make calculating egoists.”
    —Sébastien-Roch Nicolas De Chamfort (1741–1794)

    “I support all people on earth
    who have bodies like and unlike my body,
    skins and moles and old scars,
    secret and public hair,
    crooked toes. I support
    those who have done nothing large.”
    —Naomi Shihab Nye (b. 1952)
