Famous quotes containing the words single and/or individual:
“The pure serene of memory in one man,
A ripple widening from a single stone
Winding around the waters of the world.”
—Theodore Roethke (19081963)
“The Declaration [of Independence] was not a protest against government, but against the excess of government. It prescribed the proper role of government, to secure the rights of individuals and to effect their safety and happiness. In modern society, no individual can do this alone. So government is not a necessary evil but a necessary good.”
—Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
