Famous quotes containing the word ancestors:

    “Our ancestors were savages. The story of Romulus and Remus being suckled by a wolf is not a meaningless fable. The founders of every state which has risen to eminence have drawn their nourishment and vigor from a similar wild source. It was because the children of the Empire were not suckled by the wolf that they were conquered and displaced by the children of the northern forests who were.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “It is fortunate that each generation does not comprehend its own ignorance. We are thus enabled to call our ancestors barbarous.”
    —Charles Dudley Warner (1829–1900)
