State Spartans Men

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or men:

    Governments which have a regard to the common interest are constituted in accordance with strict principles of justice, and are therefore true forms; but those which regard only the interest of the rulers are all defective and perverted forms, for they are despotic, whereas a state is a community of freemen.
    Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)

    Only you women have to put these airs on
    To impress men. You’ve got us so ashamed
    Of being men we can’t look at a good fight
    Between two boys and not feel bound to stop it.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
