Famous quotes containing the words host and/or nation:

    “Thrust, my daughter or son, to escape, there is none, none, none,
    Nor when all ponderous heaven’s host of waters breaks.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “The so-called science of poll-taking is not a science at all but mere necromancy. People are unpredictable by nature, and although you can take a nation’s pulse, you can’t be sure that the nation hasn’t just run up a flight of stairs.”
    —E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
