Censure/politics

Famous quotes containing the words censure and/or politics:

    “Thus have I made my own opinions clear;

    As fittest for discourse and nearest prose;”
    —John Dryden (1631–1700)

    “They who have been bred in the school of politics fail now and always to face the facts. Their measures are half measures and makeshifts merely. They put off the day of settlement, and meanwhile the debt accumulates.”
