Famous quotes containing the word ancestors:

    “I stand here tonight to say that we have never known defeat; we have never been vanquished. We have not always reached the goal toward which we have striven, but in the hour of our greatest disappointment we could always point to our battlefield and say: “There we fought our good fight, there we defended the principles for which our ancestors and yours laid down their lives; there is our battlefield for justice, equality and freedom. Where is yours?””
    —Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)

    “It is fortunate that each generation does not comprehend its own ignorance. We are thus enabled to call our ancestors barbarous.”
    —Charles Dudley Warner (1829–1900)

    “Our ancestors ... were laborers, not lawyers.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
