Chorus Tenure

Famous quotes containing the words chorus and/or tenure:

“The rich earth, of its own self made rich,
Fertile of its own leaves and days and wars,
Of its brown wheat rapturous in the wind,
The nature of its women in the air,
The stern voices of its necessitous men,
This chorus as of those that wanted to live.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

“A politician never forgets the precarious nature of elective life. We have never established a practice of tenure in public office.”
