Famous quotes containing the words world and/or state:
“It is only shallow people who do not judge by appearances. The true mystery of the world is the visible, not the invisible.”

“Wherever the State touches the personal life of the infant, the child, the youth, or the aged, helpless, defective in mind, body or moral nature, there the State enters “woman’s peculiar sphere,” her sphere of motherly succor and training, her sphere of sympathetic and self-sacrificing ministration to individual lives.”
