Famous quotes containing the words american and/or politician:
“An accurate charting of the American woman’s progress through history might look more like a corkscrew tilted slightly to one side, its loops inching closer to the line of freedom with the passage of time—but like a mathematical curve approaching infinity, never touching its goal. . . . Each time, the spiral turns her back just short of the finish line.”
—Susan Faludi (20th century)
“a politician is an arse upon
which everyone has sat except a man.”
—E.E. (Edward Estlin)
