Famous quotes containing the words government and/or led:
“Chile consents to do all we can reasonably demand. My regret is that our Government blustered and bullied. President [Benjamin] Harrison argued in his message like a prosecutor—made the most of the case against our weak sister. Forbearance, charity, friendship, arbitration should have been in our words and thoughts.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“A Dominie in Gray—
Put gently up the evening Bars—
And led the flock away—”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
