Famous quotes containing the words political and/or figures:

    “A political place with no power, only influence, is not to my taste.”
    —Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)

    “But that wasn’t fancy enough for Lord Byron, oh dear me no, he had to invent a lot of figures of speech and then interpolate them,
    With the result that whenever you mention Old Testament soldiers to
    people they say Oh yes, they’re the ones that a lot of wolves dressed up in gold and purple ate them.”
    —Ogden Nash (1902–1971)
