Lost Nation

Famous quotes containing the words lost and/or nation:

    “Christ of His gentleness
    Thirsting and hungering,

    Unto lost desert-folk
    That listened wondering.”
    —Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    “Peace is normally a great good, and normally it coincides with righteousness, but it is righteousness and not peace which should bind the conscience of a nation as it should bind the conscience of an individual; and neither a nation nor an individual can surrender conscience to another’s keeping.”
