Lords/politics

Famous quotes containing the words lords and/or politics:

“Men of England, wherefore plough
For the lords who lay ye low?”
—Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

“Politics is not an end, but a means. It is not a product, but a process. It is the art of government. Like other values it has its counterfeits. So much emphasis has been placed upon the false that the significance of the true has been obscured and politics has come to convey the meaning of crafty and cunning selfishness, instead of candid and sincere service.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
