Washington Dulles

Famous quotes containing the words washington and/or dulles:

“The city of Washington is in some respects self-contained, and it is easy there to forget what the rest of the United States is thinking about. I count it a fortunate circumstance that almost all the windows of the White House and its offices open upon unoccupied spaces that stretch to the banks of the Potomac ... and that as I sit there I can constantly forget Washington and remember the United States.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

“We walked to the brink and we looked it in the face.”
—John Foster Dulles (1888–1959)
