Famous quotes containing the words state and/or line:
“If the alternative is to keep all just men in prison, or give up war and slavery, the State will not hesitate which to choose.”

“The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is
Rapidly fadin’.
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin’.”
