Common Carriers

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or carriers:

    Governments which have a regard to the common interest are constituted in accordance with strict principles of justice, and are therefore true forms; but those which regard only the interest of the rulers are all defective and perverted forms, for they are despotic, whereas a state is a community of freemen.
    Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)

    Now, the wry Rosenbloom is dead
    And his finical carriers tread,
    On a hundred legs, the tread
    Of the dead.
    Rosenbloom is dead.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
