Famous quotes containing the words labour and/or party:
“Work apace, apace, apace, apace;
Honest labour bears a lovely face;”
—Thomas Dekker (1572?–1632?)
“No political party can ever make prohibition effective. A political party implies an adverse, an opposing, political party. To enforce criminal statutes implies substantial unanimity in the community. This is the result of the jury system. Hence the futility of party prohibition.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
