Famous quotes containing the words national and/or acclaim:

    The American, if he has a spark of national feeling, will be humiliated by the very prospect of a foreigner’s visit to Congress—these, for the most part, illiterate hacks whose fancy vests are spotted with gravy, and whose speeches, hypocritical, unctuous, and slovenly, are spotted also with the gravy of political patronage, these persons are a reflection on the democratic process rather than of it; they expose it in its process rather than of it; they expose it in its underwear.
    Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)

    Humility must always be the portion of any man who receives acclaim earned in the blood of his followers and the sacrifices of his friends.
    Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890–1969)
