Famous quotes containing the words lord and/or high:
“I’ve never laid a cane on the back of a lord before, but if you force me to I shall speedily become used to the practice.”

“We assume that politicians are without honor. We read their statements trying to crack the code. The scandals of their politics: not so much that men in high places lie, only that they do so with such indifference, so endlessly, still expecting to be believed. We are accustomed to the contempt inherent in the political lie.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
