Famous quotes containing the words general and/or reference:

    “Towards him they bend
    With awful reverence prone; and as a God
    Extoll him equal to the highest in Heav’n:
    Nor fail’d they to express how much they prais’d,
    That for the general safety he despis’d
    His own: for neither do the Spirits damn’d
    Loose all thir vertue; lest bad men should boast
    Thir specious deeds on earth, which glory excites,
    Or close ambition varnisht o’er with zeal.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “If Hitler invaded hell I would make at least a favourable reference to the devil in the House of Commons.”
    —Winston Churchill (1874–1965)
