Elizabeth City County

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or county:

    You’ve been trying to keep an honest accounting of city monies. You’ve been dealing with politicians. You’ve been standing up for your own rights, haven’t you? Naturally you landed in jail.
    Dalton Trumbo (1905–1976)

    It would astonish if not amuse, the older citizens of your County who twelve years ago knew me a stranger, friendless, uneducated, penniless boy, working on a flat boat—at ten dollars per month to learn that I have been put down here as the candidate of pride, wealth, and aristocratic family distinction.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
