Famous quotes containing the words george washington, washington, university, law and/or school:

    Mankind, when left to themselves, are unfit for their own government.
    George Washington (1732–1799)

    ... Washington was not only an important capital. It was a city of fear. Below that glittering and delightful surface there is another story, that of underpaid Government clerks, men and women holding desperately to work that some political pull may at any moment take from them. A city of men in office and clutching that office, and a city of struggle which the country never suspects.
    Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)

    It is the goal of the American university to be the brains of the republic.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

    All gentle cant and philosophizing to the contrary notwithstanding, no people in this world ever did achieve their freedom by goody-goody talk and moral suasion: it being immutable law that all revolutions that will succeed, must begin in blood.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    For millions of men and women, the church has been the hospital for the soul, the school for the mind and the safe depository for moral ideas.
    Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
