Famous quotes containing the word origin:

    “All good poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquillity.”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    “We have got rid of the fetish of the divine right of kings, and that slavery is of divine origin and authority. But the divine right of property has taken its place. The tendency plainly is towards ... “a government of the rich, by the rich, and for the rich.””
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
