Supported Chiang

Famous quotes containing the words supported and/or chiang:

    Most think that they are above being supported by the town; but it oftener happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means, which would be more disreputable.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Every clique is a refuge for incompetence. It fosters corruption and disloyalty, it begets cowardice, and consequently is a burden upon and a drawback to the progress of the country. Its instincts and actions are those of the pack.
    —Madame Chiang Kai-Shek (b. 1898)
