Famous quotes containing the word influence:

    “No power on earth or above the bottomless pit has such influence to terrorize and make cowards of men as the liquor power. Satan could not have fallen on a more potent instrument with which to thrall the world. Alcohol is king!”
    —Eliza “Mother” Stewart (1816–c. 1908)

    “Just what is the civil law? What neither influence can affect, nor power break, nor money corrupt: were it to be suppressed or even merely ignored or inadequately observed, no one would feel safe about anything, whether his own possessions, the inheritance he expects from his father, or the bequests he makes to his children.”
    —Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)

    “I believe that the influence of woman will save the country before every other power.”
    —Lucy Stone (1818–1893)
