Famous quotes containing the words informed and/or consent:
“We are as much informed of a writer’s genius by what he selects as by what he originates. We read the quotation with his eyes, and find a new and fervent sense; as a passage from one of the poets, well recited, borrows new interest from the rendering. As the journals say, “the italics are ours.””
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“What we seek is the reign of law, based upon the consent of the governed and sustained by the organized opinion of mankind.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
