Nation Du Chat

Famous quotes containing the words nation and/or chat:

    We are a nation of politicians, concerned about the outmost defenses only of freedom. It is our children’s children who may perchance be really free.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    How it is I know not; but there is no place like a bed for confidential disclosures between friends. Man and wife, they say, there open the very bottom of their souls to each other; and some old couples often lie and chat over old times till nearly morning. Thus, then, in our hearts’ honeymoon, lay I and Queequeg—a cosy, loving pair.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
