Labor Government

Famous quotes containing the words labor and/or government:

    I count him a great man who inhabits a higher sphere of thought, into which other men rise with labor and difficulty; he has but to open his eyes to see things in a true light, and in large relations; whilst they must make painful corrections, and keep a vigilant eye on many sources of error.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” I believe this government cannot endure, permanently half slave and half free.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
