Famous quotes containing the words national and/or day:
“Maybe it’s understandable what a history of failures America’s foreign policy has been. We are, after all, a country full of people who came to America to get away from foreigners. Any prolonged examination of the U.S. government reveals foreign policy to be America’s miniature schnauzer—a noisy but small and useless part of the national household.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
“Never put off till to-morrow what you can do day after to-morrow just as well.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
