More quotes by Joseph Howe
Poetry was the maiden I loved, but politics was the harridan I married.
Joseph Howe
A wise nation preserves its records, gathers up its muniments, decorates the tombes of its illustrious dead, repairs its greatest structures and fosters national pride and love of country, by perpetual references to the sacrifices and glories of the past.
