Famous quotes containing the words held and/or group:

    Since long I’ve held silence a remedy for harm.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

    The government of the United States at present is a foster-child of the special interests. It is not allowed to have a voice of its own. It is told at every move, “Don’t do that, You will interfere with our prosperity.” And when we ask: “where is our prosperity lodged?” a certain group of gentlemen say, “With us.”
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
