Famous quotes containing the words government and/or politics:

    Our government rests in public opinion. Whoever can change public opinion, can change the government, practically just so much.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    The word “revolution” itself has become not only a dead relic of Leftism, but a key to the deadendedness of male politics: the “revolution” of a wheel which returns in the end to the same place; the “revolving door” of a politics which has “liberated” women only to use them, and only within the limits of male tolerance.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
