Main Opposition Party

Famous quotes containing the words main, opposition and/or party:

    —the main jet
    Struggling aloft unti it seems at rest

    In the act of rising, until
    The very wish of water is reversed,
    Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

    My opposition [to interviews] lies in the fact that offhand answers have little value or grace of expression, and that such oral give and take helps to perpetuate the decline of the English language.
    James Thurber (1894–1961)

    Last night, party at Lansdowne-House. Tonight, party at Lady Charlotte Greville’s—deplorable waste of time, and something of temper. Nothing imparted—nothing acquired—talking without ideas—if any thing like thought in my mind, it was not on the subjects on which we were gabbling. Heigho!—and in this way half London pass what is called life.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
