Gunfire Support Duty

Famous quotes containing the words support and/or duty:

    What has been the effect of [religious] coercion? To make one half the world fools, and the other half hypocrites. To support roguery and error all over the earth.
    Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    They do not sweat and whine about their condition,
    They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins,
    They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God,
    Not one is dissatisfied—not one is demented with the mania of owning things,
    Not one kneels to another, nor to his kind that lived thousands of
    years ago,
    Not one is respectable or industrious over the whole earth.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
