Village Council President

Famous quotes containing the words village, council and/or president:

    Under a spreading chestnut-tree
    The village smithy stands;

    And the muscles of his brawny arms
    Are strong as iron bands.

    I am not liked as a President by the politicians in office, in the press, or in Congress. But I am content to abide the judgment—the sober second thought—of the people.
