Famous quotes containing the words spencer and/or walpole:

    The essence of democracy is its assurance that every human being should so respect himself and should be so respected in his own personality that he should have opportunity equal to that of every other human being to “show what he was meant to become.”
    —Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)

    Justice is rather the activity of truth, than a virtue in itself. Truth tells us what is due to others, and justice renders that due. Injustice is acting a lie.
    —Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
