Famous quotes containing the words smaller and/or states:

“Some smaller crimes always precede the great crimes.”
—Jean Racine (1639–1699)

“Action from principle, the perception and the performance of right, changes things and relations; it is essentially revolutionary, and does not consist wholly with anything which was. It not only divides States and churches, it divides families; ay, it divides the individual, separating the diabolical in him from the divine.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
