Sovereign States

Famous quotes containing the words sovereign and/or states:

“If we study nature attentively, alike in its great revolutions and in its minutest works, it is impossible not to admit enchantment—giving the word its fullest meaning.

—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)

“Life is a series of sensations connected to different states of consciousness.”
