Famous quotes containing the words left and/or party:

    “To minor authors is left the ornamentation of the commonplace: these do not bother about any reinventing of the world; they merely try to squeeze the best they can out of a given order of things, out of traditional patterns of fiction.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    “No political party can ever make prohibition effective. A political party implies an adverse, an opposing, political party. To enforce criminal statutes implies substantial unanimity in the community. This is the result of the jury system. Hence the futility of party prohibition.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
