Famous quotes containing the word parties:

    “Things must be done by parties, not by persons using parties as tools.”
    —Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)

    “A foreign minister, I will maintain it, can never be a good man of business if he is not an agreeable man of pleasure too. Half his business is done by the help of his pleasures: his views are carried on, and perhaps best, and most unsuspectedly, at balls, suppers, assemblies, and parties of pleasure; by intrigues with women, and connections insensibly formed with men, at those unguarded hours of amusement.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
