State Spartans Men

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or men:

    The blacksmith dropped his hammer, the carpenter his plane, the mason his trowel, the farmer his sickle, the baker his loaf, and the tapster his bottle. All were off for the mines, some on horses, some on carts, and some on crutches, and one went in a litter.
    —For the State of California, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    Against ill chances men are ever merry,
    But heaviness foreruns the good event.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
