Direct Negotiations

Famous quotes containing the words direct and/or negotiations:

“Parliament must not be told a direct untruth, but it’s quite possible to allow them to mislead themselves.”
—Norman Tebbit (b. 1931)

“But always and sometimes questioning the old modes
And the new wondering, the poem, growing up through the floor,
Standing tall in tubers, invading and smashing the ritual
Parlor, demands to be met on its own terms now,
Now that the preliminary negotiations are at last over.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
