Famous quotes containing the words county and/or authority:
“In the county there are thirty-seven churches

“Authority and power are two different things: power is the force by means of which you can oblige others to obey you. Authority is the right to direct and command, to be listened to or obeyed by others. Authority requests power. Power without authority is tyranny.”
