Famous quotes containing the words treasury and/or history:

“The treasury of America lies in those ambitions and those energies that cannot be restricted to a special, favored class.

Every country is renewed out of the ranks of the unknown, not out of the ranks of those already famous and powerful and in control.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

“A country grows in history not only because of the heroism of its troops on the field of battle, it grows also when it turns to justice and to right for the conservation of its interests.”
