Famous quotes containing the words mixed and/or state:

    “Where might is mixed with wit, there is too good an accord in a government.”
    —Elizabeth I (1533–1603)

    “It is said that a carpenter building a summer hotel here ... declared that one very clear day he picked out a ship coming into Portland Harbor and could distinctly see that its cargo was West Indian rum. A county historian avers that it was probably an optical delusion, the result of looking so often through a glass in common use in those days.”
