Famous quotes containing the word politics:

    “Until politics are a branch of science we shall do well to regard political and social reforms as experiments rather than short-cuts to the millennium.”
    —J.B.S. (John Burdon Sanderson)

    “The rage for road building is beneficent for America, where vast distance is so main a consideration in our domestic politics and trade, inasmuch as the great political promise of the invention is to hold the Union staunch, whose days already seem numbered by the mere inconvenience of transporting representatives, judges and officers across such tedious distances of land and water.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
