Famous quotes containing the words united and/or kingdom:

    When, in some obscure country town, the farmers come together to a special town meeting, to express their opinion on some subject which is vexing to the land, that, I think, is the true Congress, and the most respectable one that is ever assembled in the United States.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Then he looked up at his disciples and said: Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.
    Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you will be filled.
    Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.
    Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you, revile you, and defame you on account of the Son of Man.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 6:20-22.
