Border/politics

Famous quotes containing the words border and/or politics:

“I have, indeed, even omitted facts, which, on account of their singularity, must in the eyes of some have appeared to border on the marvelous. But in the forests of South America such extraordinary realities are to be found, that there is assuredly no need to have recourse to fiction or the least exaggeration.”
—J.G. (John Gabriel)

“If politics is the art of the possible, research is surely the art of the soluble. Both are immensely practical-minded affairs.”
