Famous quotes containing the words world, justice and/or project:
“I did not live until this time
Crownd my felicity,
When I could say without a crime,
I am not thine, but Thee.
This carcase breathd, and walkt, and slept,
So that the World believd
There was a soul the motions kept;
But they were all deceivd.”
—Katherine Philips (16311664)
“I cannot assent to a measure which stains our credit. We must keep that untainted. We are a debtor nation. Low rates of interest on the vast indebtedness we must carry for many years, is the important end to be kept in view. Expediency and justice both demand honest coinage.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (18221893)
“They had their fortunes to make, everything to gain and nothing to lose. They were schooled in and anxious for debates; forcible in argument; reckless and brilliant. For them it was but a short and natural step from swaying juries in courtroom battles over the ownership of land to swaying constituents in contests for office. For the lawyer, oratory was the escalator that could lift a political candidate to higher ground.”
—Federal Writers Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
