Famous quotes containing the words fatherland and/or front:

    “A state always calls itself fatherland when it is ready for murder.”
    —Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)

    “Culture is a sham if it is only a sort of Gothic front put on an iron building—like Tower Bridge—or a classical front put on a steel frame—like the Daily Telegraph building in Fleet Street. Culture, if it is to be a real thing and a holy thing, must be the product of what we actually do for a living—not something added, like sugar on a pill.”
    —Eric Gill (1882–1940)
