Thomas Downey High

Famous quotes containing the words thomas and/or high:

    Tangled was I in Love’s snare.
    Oppressed with pain, torment with care;
    Of grief right sure, of joy quite bare,
    Clean in despair by cruelty.
    —Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)

    As high as mind stands above nature, so high does the state stand above physical life. Man must therefore venerate the state as a secular deity.... The march of God in the world, that is what the State is.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
