Famous quotes containing the word current:

    “Without the Empire we should be tossed like a cork in the cross current of world politics. It is at once our sword and our shield.”
    —William Morris Hughes (1864–1952)

    “Absolutely speaking, Do unto others as you would that they should do unto you is by no means a golden rule, but the best of current silver. An honest man would have but little occasion for it. It is golden not to have any rule at all in such a case.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
