About This Quote
A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves. This is a great quote and very true. People will do what they want and what they feel is right and this will eventually lead to a country ruled by people who do not care about those they rule. A nation of sheep will support those who do not care about the well being of the people and this will lead to a government that is corrupt. If you want to be a wolf then you must be willing to think like one and if you don’t then it will be hard for you to be successful as a wolf.
