Famous quotes containing the words government, politics and/or islands:

    “The tide which, after our former relaxed government, took a violent course towards the opposite extreme, and seemed ready to hang every thing round with the tassils and baubles of monarchy, is now getting back as we hope to a just mean, a government of laws addressed to the reason of the people, and not to their weaknesses.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “I played by the rules of politics as I found them.”
    —Richard M. Nixon (1913–1995)

    “What are the islands to me
    if you are lost
    what is Naxos, Tinos, Andros,
    and Delos, the clasp
    of the white necklace?”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
