Native Affairs

Famous quotes containing the words native and/or affairs:

    “A native health and innocence
    Within my bones did grow,
    And while my God did all his glories show,
    I felt a vigour in my sense
    That was all spirit: I within did flow
    With seas of life like wine;
    I nothing in the world did know
    But ‘twas divine.”
    —Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)

    “Secrecy is the first essential in affairs of the State.”
    —Duc De Richelieu (1585–1642)
