Famous quotes containing the words current, distribution and/or seats:

    “Without the Empire we should be tossed like a cork in the cross current of world politics. It is at once our sword and our shield.”
    —William Morris Hughes (1864–1952)

    “In this distribution of functions, the scholar is the delegated intellect. In the right state, he is, Man Thinking. In the degenerate state, when the victim of society, he tends to become a mere thinker, or, still worse, the parrot of other men’s thinking.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “It has always been thought perfectly womanly to be a scrub- woman in the Legislature and to take care of the spittoons; that is entirely within the charmed circle of woman’s sphere; but for women to occupy any of those official seats would be degrading.”
    —Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
