Color Framing Bit

Famous quotes containing the words color, framing and/or bit:

    To face the garment of rebellion
    With some fine color that may please the eye
    Of fickle changelings and poor discontents.
    Which gape and rub the elbow at the news
    Of hurly-burly innovation.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men ... you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.
    James Madison (1751–1836)

    The ordinary man—we have to face it: it is every bit as true of the ordinary Englishman as of the ordinary American—is an Anarchist. He wants to do as he likes. He may want his neighbor to be governed, but he himself doesn’t want to be governed.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
