Famous quotes containing the words national, people and/or congress:

    I would save the Union. I would save it the shortest way under the Constitution. The sooner the national authority can be restored; the nearer the Union will be “the Union as it was.”
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    But when did love not try to change
    The world back to itself no cost,
    No past, no people else at all
    Only what meeting made us feel,
    So new, and gentle-sharp, and strange?
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    There is not a subject in which I take a deeper interest than I do in the development of Alaska, and I propose, if Congress will follow by recommendations, to do something in that territory that will make it move on.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
