Board/people

Famous quotes containing the words board and/or people:

“And they heaved a mighty breath, every soul on board but me,
As they saw her nose again pointing handsome out to sea;
But all that I could think of, in the darkness and the cold,
Was just that I was leaving home and my folks were growing old.”
—Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

“The first duty of government is to see that people have food, fuel, and clothes. The second, that they have means of moral and intellectual education.”
