Winston Churchill
“A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him I may think aloud.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“We have pacified some thousands of the islanders and buried them; destroyed their fields; burned their villages, and turned their widows and orphans out-of-doors; furnished heartbreak by exile to some dozens of disagreeable patriots; subjugated the remaining 10 millions by Benevolent Assimilation, which is the pious new name of the musket. And so, by these Providences of God -- and the phrase is the government's, not mine -- we are a World Power.”
Mark Twain
“No Resolution of Repenting hereafter, can be sincere.”
Benjamin Franklin
“We?ll tell Islander East that the Long Island Sound is not the Wild West, ... The costs for the state of Connecticut couldn?t be higher.”
