Famous quotes containing the words patriotic, front and/or delegation:
“Yet some can be patriotic who have no self-respect, and sacrifice the greater to the less. They love the soil which makes their graves, but have no sympathy for the spirit which may still animate their clay. Patriotism is a maggot in their heads.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The front aspect of great thoughts can only be enjoyed by those who stand on the side whence they arrive.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The two great points of difference between a democracy and a republic are: first, the delegation of the government, in the latter, to a small number of citizens elected by the rest; secondly, the greater number of citizens and greater sphere of country over which the latter may be extended.”
—James Madison (1751–1836)
