Native Affairs

Famous quotes containing the words native and/or affairs:

“I wonder that we Americans love our country at all, it having no limits and no oneness; and when you try to make it a matter of the heart, everything falls away except one’s native State;Mneither can you seize hold of that, unless you tear it out of the Union, bleeding and quivering.”
—Nathaniel Hawthorne (1804–1864)

“In France a woman will not go to sleep until she has talked over affairs of state with her lover or her husband.”
