Famous quotes containing the words political and/or division:

    “[The political mind] is a strange mixture of vanity and timidity, of an obsequious attitude at one time and a delusion of grandeur at another time. The political mind is the product of men in public life who have been twice spoiled. They have been spoiled with praise and they have been spoiled with abuse.”
    —Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    “God and the Devil are an effort after specialization and the division of labor.”
    —Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
