Famous quotes containing the words tory and/or political:

    The Tory camp is now in sight,
    And there he cowers within his den;
    He hears our shouts, he dreads the fight,
    He fears, and flies from Marion’s men.
    William Gilmore Simms (1806–1872)

    Political life at Washington is like political life in a suburban vestry.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
