Famous quotes containing the words security and/or breach:

    I feel a sincere wish indeed to see our government brought back to it’s republican principles, to see that kind of government firmly fixed, to which my whole life has been devoted. I hope we shall now see it so established, as that when I retire, it may be under full security that we are to continue free and happy.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    But to my mind, though I am native here
    And to the manner born, it is a custom
    More honored in the breach than the observance.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
