Famous quotes containing the word greece:
“When a man hath no freedom to fight for at home,
Let him combat for that of his neighbors;
Let him think of the glories of Greece and of Rome,
And get knocked on the head for his labors.”

“All that grave weight of America
Cancelled! Like Greece and Rome.
The future in ruins!”
