Ford Madox

Famous quotes containing the words ford and/or madox:

    Can a free people restrain crime without sacrificing fundamental liberties and a heritage of compassion?... Let us show that we can temper together those opposite elements of liberty and restraint into one consistent whole. Let us set an example for the world of a law-abiding America glorying in its freedom as well as its respect for law.
    —Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)

    And then I ran to get away,
    But when I stopped and turned to see,
    The tree was bending to the side
    And leaning out to look at me.
    —Elizabeth Madox Roberts (1880–1941)
