Famous quotes containing the words nobility and/or politics:

    “If there be no nobility of descent in a nation, all the more indispensable is it that there should be nobility of ascent—a character in them that bear rule, so fine and high and pure, that as men come within the circle of its influence, they involuntarily pay homage to that which is the one pre-eminent distinction, the Royalty of Virtue.”
    —Henry Codman Potter (1835–1908)

    “Writing is the continuation of politics by other means.”
    —Philippe Sollers (b. 1936)
