Famous quotes containing the words increase and/or lapham:

    Liberty has never come from the government. Liberty has always come from the subjects of the government. The history of government is a history of resistance. The history of liberty is the history of the limitation of government, not the increase of it.
    Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    A society that presumes a norm of violence and celebrates aggression, whether in the subway, on the football field, or in the conduct of its business, cannot help making celebrities of the people who would destroy it.
    —Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
