High General

Famous quotes containing the words high and/or general:

“Processions that lack high stilts have nothing that catches the eye.
What if my great-granddad had a pair that were twenty foot high,
And mine were but fifteen foot, no modern stalks upon higher,
Some rogue of the world stole them to patch up a fence or a fire.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“Every general increase of freedom is accompanied by some degeneracy, attributable to the same causes as the freedom.”
