Famous quotes containing the words members of, members and/or parliament:

    “I weep for the liberty of my country when I see at this early day of its “successful experiment” that corruption has been imputed to many members of the House of Representatives, and the rights of the people have been bartered for promises of office.”
    —Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)

    “In every party there is one person who, through his dotingly credulous enunciation of party principles, incites the other members to defection.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “The war shook down the Tsardom, an unspeakable abomination, and made an end of the new German Empire and the old Apostolic Austrian one. It ... gave votes and seats in Parliament to women.... But if society can be reformed only by the accidental results of horrible catastrophes ... what hope is there for mankind in them? The war was a horror and everybody is the worse for it.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
