Fortified Settlements

Famous quotes containing the words fortified and/or settlements:

    No place is so strongly fortified that money could not capture it.
    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)

    That those tribes [the Sac and Fox Indians] cannot exist surrounded by our settlements and in continual contact with our citizens is certain. They have neither the intelligence, the industry, the moral habits, nor the desire of improvement which are essential to any favorable change in their condition.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
