Passed National Security

Famous quotes containing the words passed, national and/or security:

    The souls did from their bodies fly—
    They fled to bliss or woe!
    And every soul, it passed me by,
    Like the whizz of my cross-bow!
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    Not one of our national officers ever has had a dollar of salary. I retire on full pay!
    Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)

    Is a Bill of Rights a security for [religious liberty]? If there were but one sect in America, a Bill of Rights would be a small protection for liberty.... Freedom derives from a multiplicity of sects, which pervade America, and which is the best and only security for religious liberty in any society. For where there is such a variety of sects, there cannot be a majority of any one sect to oppress and persecute the rest.
    James Madison (1751–1836)
