Famous quotes containing the words head of, head, prime, minister, military and/or cabinet:

    I have placed you at the head of the Army of the Potomac.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    If I were as I once was, the strong hoofs crushing the sand and the shells,
    Coming out of the sea as the dawn comes, a chaunt of love on my lips,
    Not coughing, my head on my knees, and praying, and wroth with the bells,
    I would leave no saint’s head on his body from Rachlin to Bera of ships.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    What was lost in the European cataclysm was not only the Jewish past—the whole life of a civilization—but also a major share of the Jewish future.... [ellipsis in source] It was not only the intellect of a people in its prime that was excised, but the treasure of a people in its potential.
    Cynthia Ozick (b. 1928)

    He had a gentleman-like frankness in his behaviour, and as a great point of honour as a minister can have, especially a minister at the head of the treasury, where numberless sturdy and insatiable beggars of condition apply, who cannot all be gratified, nor all with safety be refused.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    The domestic career is no more natural to all women than the military career is natural to all men.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    Fences, unlike punishments, clearly mark out the perimeters of any specified territory. Young children learn where it is permissible to play, because their backyard fence plainly outlines the safe area. They learn about the invisible fence that surrounds the stove, and that Grandma has an invisible barrier around her cabinet of antique teacups.
    Jeanne Elium (20th century)
