Famous quotes containing the words political and/or positions:

    We are concerned now, however, about natural, not political limits.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    ... liberal intellectuals ... tend to have a classical theory of politics, in which the state has a monopoly of power; hoping that those in positions of authority may prove to be enlightened men, wielding power justly, they are natural, if cautious, allies of the “establishment.”
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
