Famous quotes containing the words world and/or politics:
“Clothes make the poor invisible.... America has the best-dressed poverty the world has ever known.”
—Michael Harrington (1928–1989)
“Our democracy, our culture, our whole way of life is a spectacular triumph of the blah. Why not have a political convention without politics to nominate a leader who’s out in front of nobody?... Maybe our national mindlessness is the very thing that keeps us from turning into one of those smelly European countries full of pseudo-reds and crypto-fascists and greens who dress like forest elves.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
