Famous quotes containing the words government and/or troops:
“The lesson should be constantly enforced that though the people support the Government, Government should not support the people.”

“But, where the road runs near the stream,
Oft through the trees they catch a glance
Of passing troops in the sun’s beam—
Pennon, and plume, and flashing lance!
Forth to the world those soldiers fare,
To life, to cities, and to war!”
—Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
