Famous quotes containing the words physical and/or removal:

    Patience, that blending of moral courage with physical timidity.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    If God now wills the removal of a great wrong, and wills also that we of the North as well as you of the South, shall pay fairly for our complicity in that wrong, impartial history will find therein new cause to attest and revere the justice and goodness of God.
