Famous quotes containing the words high and/or country:

    “Like other high subjects, the Law gives no ground to common sense.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Slowly, and in spite of anything we Americans do or do not do, it looks a little as if you and some other good people are going to have to answer the old question of whether you want to keep your country unshackled by taking even more definite steps to do so—even firing shots—or, on the other hand, submitting to be shackled for the sake of not losing one American life.”
    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
