Famous quotes containing the words position and/or lights:
“One reason—perhaps the chief—of the virility of the Roosevelts is [their] very democratic spirit. They have never felt that because they were born in a good position they could put their hands in their pockets and succeed. They have felt, rather, that being born in a good position, there is no excuse for them if they did not do their duty by the community.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
“Meet me in St. Louis, Louis,
Meet me at the fair,
Don’t tell me the lights are shining any place but there.”
—Andrew B. Sterling (1874–1955)
