Famous quotes containing the word nations:

    Two nations between whom there is no intercourse and no sympathy; who are as ignorant of each other’s habits, thoughts, and feelings, as if they were dwellers in different zones, or inhabitants of different planets.... The rich and the poor.
    Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    If I thought that I could speak with discrimination and impartiality of the nations of Christendom, I should praise them, but it tasks me too much. They seem to be the most civil and humane, but I may be mistaken.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The great nations have always acted like gangsters, and the small nations like prostitutes.
    Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)
