Broad Subject Fields

Famous quotes containing the words broad, subject and/or fields:

    The hearts that would have given their blood like water,
    Beat heavily beyond the Atlantic roar.

    But we are exiles from our fathers’ land.

    It is clear that in a monarchy, where he who commands the exceution of the laws generally thinks himself above them, there is less need of virtue than in a popular government, where the person entrusted with the execution of the laws is sensible of his being subject to their direction.
    —Charles Louis de Secondat Montesquieu (1689–1755)

    The world’s great day is growing late,
    Yet strange these fields that we have planted
    So long with crops of love and hate.
