Famous quotes containing the word strength:

    Today, supremely, it behooves us to remember that a nation shall be saved by the power that sleeps in its own bosom; or by none; shall be renewed in hope, in confidence, in strength by waters welling up from its own sweet, perennial springs. Not from above; not by patronage of its aristocrats. The flower does not bear the root, but the root the flower.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    Blind and unwavering indiscipline at all times constitutes the real strength of all free men.
    Alfred Jarry (1873–1907)

    Go forward while you can, but if your strength fails you, sit down near the road and gaze without anger or envy at those who pass by. They don’t have far to go, either.
    Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)
