Prescribed Natural

Famous quotes containing the words prescribed and/or natural:

“The Declaration [of Independence] was not a protest against government, but against the excess of government. It prescribed the proper role of government, to secure the rights of individuals and to effect their safety and happiness. In modern society, no individual can do this alone. So government is not a necessary evil but a necessary good.”
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)

“The idea that seeing life means going from place to place and doing a great variety of obvious things is an illusion natural to dull minds.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)
