State Troops

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or troops:

“The state does not demand justice of its members, but thinks that it succeeds very well with the least degree of it, hardly more than rogues practice; and so do the neighborhood and the family. What is commonly called Friendship even is only a little more honor among rogues.”

“A general is just as good or just as bad as the troops under his command make him.”
