Fielding Positions

Famous quotes containing the words fielding and/or positions:

    It is not death, but dying, which is terrible.
    —Henry Fielding (1707–1754)

    What arouses the indignation of the honest satirist is not, unless the man is a prig, the fact that people in positions of power or influence behave idiotically, or even that they behave wickedly. It is that they conspire successfully to impose upon the public a picture of themselves as so very sagacious, honest and well-intentioned.
    Claud Cockburn (1904–1981)
