United Nations Monitoring

Famous quotes containing the words united and/or nations:

    It is said that the British Empire is very large and respectable, and that the United States are a first-rate power. We do not believe that a tide rises and falls behind every man which can float the British Empire like a chip, if he should ever harbor it in his mind.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    All men should have a drop of treason in their veins, if nations are not to go soft like so many sleepy pears.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)
