Famous quotes containing the words delay and/or line:

    “Keep on adding, keep on walking, keep on progressing: do not delay on the road, do not go back, do not deviate.”
    —St. Augustine (354–430)

    “We are apt to say that a foreign policy is successful only when the country, or at any rate the governing class, is united behind it. In reality, every line of policy is repudiated by a section, often by an influential section, of the country concerned. A foreign minister who waited until everyone agreed with him would have no foreign policy at all.”
    —A.J.P. (Alan John Percivale)
