Famous quotes containing the words government and/or military:

    “The lesson should be constantly enforced that though the people support the Government, Government should not support the people.”
    —Grover Cleveland (1837–1908)

    “There was somewhat military in his nature, not to be subdued, always manly and able, but rarely tender, as if he did not feel himself except in opposition. He wanted a fallacy to expose, a blunder to pillory, I may say required a little sense of victory, a roll of the drum, to call his powers into full exercise.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
