Famous quotes containing the words entangled and/or state:
“They are so greedy and impetuous that they are frequently caught by being entangled in the line the moment it is cast.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Today the discredit of words is very great. Most of the time the media transmit lies. In the face of an intolerable world, words appear to change very little. State power has become congenitally deaf, which is why—but the editorialists forget it—terrorists are reduced to bombs and hijacking.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
