Fortified

Famous quotes containing the word fortified:

“Our rural village life was a purifying, uplifting influence that fortified us against the later impacts of urbanization; Church and State, because they were separated and friendly, had spiritual and ethical standards that were mutually enriching; freedom and discipline, individualism and collectivity, nature and nurture in their interaction promised an ever stronger democracy. I have no illusions that those simpler, happier days can be resurrected.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

“No place is so strongly fortified that money could not capture it.”
—Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)

“He’s fortified against any denial.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
