Famous quotes containing the words base and/or court:
“And all the popular statesmen say
That purity built up the State
And after kept it from decay;
Admonish us to cling to that
And let all base ambition be,
For intellect would make us proud....”

“World history is a court of judgment.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
