Famous quotes containing the words judas and/or country:

    Yet I well remember
    The favors of these men. Were they not mine?
    Did they not sometimes cry “All hail!” to me?
    So Judas did to Christ; but He, in twelve,
    Found truth in all but one; I, in twelve thousand, none.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

In due course, following the precedent which has already been set, he will be sent on a tour of the world and probably rumours of a morganatic marriage alliance will follow, and the end of it will be the country will be called upon to pay the bill.
    James Keir Hardie (1856–1915)
