Famous quotes containing the words political and/or activities:

    “It’s not that we want the political jobs themselves ... but they seem to be the only language the men understand. We don’t really want these $200 a year jobs. But the average man doesn’t understand working for a cause.”
    —Jennie Carolyn Van Ness (b. c. 1890–?)

    “As life developed, I faced each problem as it came along. As my activities and work broadened and reached out, I never tried to shirk. I tried never to evade an issue. When I found I had something to do—I just did it.”
    —Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
