Famous quotes containing the words relation to, relation and/or politics:
“Science is the language of the temporal world; love is that of the spiritual world. Man, indeed, describes more than he explains; while the angelic spirit sees and understands. Science saddens man; love enraptures the angel; science is still seeking, love has found. Man judges of nature in relation to itself; the angelic spirit judges of it in relation to heaven. In short to the spirits everything speaks.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
“The proper study of mankind is man in his relation to his deity.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Politics is war without bloodshed while war is politics with bloodshed.”
—Mao Zedong (1893–1976)
