Famous quotes containing the words purely and/or political:
“What’s past and what’s to come is strewed with husks
And formless ruin of oblivion;
But in this extant moment, faith and truth,
Strained purely from all hollow bias-drawing,
Bids thee, with most divine integrity,
From heart of very heart, great Hector, welcome!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Why, Sir, most schemes of political improvement are very laughable things.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
