Famous quotes containing the words life and/or government:

    “To suppose such a thing possible as a society, in which men, who are able and willing to work, cannot support their families, and ought, with a great part of the women, to be compelled to lead a life of celibacy, for fear of having children to be starved; to suppose such a thing possible is monstrous.”
    —William Cobbett (1762–1835)

    ““A house divided against itself cannot stand.” I believe this government cannot endure, permanently half slave and half free.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
