Famous quotes containing the word deposits:

    “Were all the worshippers of the gold calf to memorialize me and request a restoration of the deposits I would cut my right hand from my body before I would do such an act. The gold calf may be worshipped by others but as for myself I serve the Lord.”
    —Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
