Famous quotes containing the words foreign and/or honours:

    “My home policy: I wage war; my foreign policy: I wage war. All the time I wage war.”
    —Georges Clemenceau (1841–1929)

    “Come hither, all ye empty things,
    Ye bubbles rais’d by breath of Kings;
    Who float upon the tide of state,
    Come hither, and behold your fate.
    Let pride be taught by this rebuke,
    How very mean a thing’s a Duke;
    From all his ill-got honours flung,
    Turn’d to that dirt from whence he sprung.”
    —Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
