States Permit

Famous quotes containing the words states and/or permit:

“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)

“We permit all things to ourselves, and that which we call sin in others, is experiment for us.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
