Famous quotes containing the words host and/or nation:

    The rule for hospitality and Irish “help,” is, to have the same dinner every day throughout the year. At last, Mrs. O’Shaughnessy learns to cook it to a nicety, the host learns to carve it, and the guests are well served.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The nation is in a death-struggle. It must either become one vast slaveocracy of petty tyrants, or wholly the land of the free.
    Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)
