Red Cross Societies

Famous quotes containing the words red, cross and/or societies:

    Property as compared with humanity, as compared with the red blood in the American people, must take second place, not first place.

    If I can cross him any way, I bless myself every way.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    As societies grow decadent, the language grows decadent, too. Words are used to disguise, not to illuminate, action: you liberate a city by destroying it. Words are to confuse, so that at election time people will solemnly vote against their own interests.
    Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
