Famous quotes containing the words politics and/or law:

    Finishing second in the Olympics gets you silver. Finishing second in politics gets you oblivion.
    Richard M. Nixon (b. 1913)

    “... But here there is nor law nor rule,
    Nor have hands held a weary tool;
    And here there is nor Change nor Death,
    But only kind and merry breath,
    For joy is God and God is joy.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
