Famous quotes containing the words political and/or control:

    “We hold these truths to be self-evident:
    That ostracism, both political and moral, has
    Its place in the twentieth-century scheme of things....”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “Time in the hand is not control of time,
    Nor shattered fragments of an instrument
    A proof against the wind; the wind will rise,
    We can only close the shutters.”
    —Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
