National Intelligence

Famous quotes containing the words national and/or intelligence:

“I, with other Americans, have perhaps unduly resented the stream of criticism of American life ... more particularly have I resented the sneers at Main Street. For I have known that in the cottages that lay behind the street rested the strength of our national character.”
—Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)

“It’s easy to forget what intelligence consists of: luck and speculation. Here and there a windfall, here and there a scoop.”
