Famous quotes containing the words independent and/or nations:
“The soul of me is very selfish. I have gone my way after a fashion that made me the center of the plan. And you who are so individual, who are so independent a spirit, whose soul is also a kingdom, have been so loyal, so forgiving, so self-sacrificing in your willingness to live my life. Nothing but love cold have accomplished so wonderful a thing.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
“We estimate the wisdom of nations by seeing what they did with their surplus capital.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
