Famous quotes containing the words washington and/or times:
“If Washington were President now, he would have to learn our ways or lose his next election. Only fools and theorists imagine that our society can be handled with gloves or long poles. One must make ones self a part of it. If virtue wont answer our purpose, we must use vice, or our opponents will put us out of office, and this was as true in Washingtons day as it is now, and always will be.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (18381918)
“The universe may or may not be very immense.
As a matter of fact there are times when I am apt
To feel it close in tight against my sense
Like a caul in which I was born and still am wrapped.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
