Famous quotes containing the word mission:

    “The mission of the United States is one of benevolent assimilation.”
    —William McKinley (1843–1901)

    “Man is eminently a storyteller. His search for a purpose, a cause, an ideal, a mission and the like is largely a search for a plot and a pattern in the development of his life story—a story that is basically without meaning or pattern.”
    —Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
