Famous quotes containing the words chief and/or mechanical:

    “The chief element in the art of statesmanship under modern conditions is the ability to elucidate the confused and clamorous interests which converge upon the seat of government. It is an ability to penetrate from the naïve self-interest of each group to its permanent and real interest.... Statesmanship ... consists in giving the people not what they want but what they will learn to want.”
    —Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)

    “There is only one evil, to deny life
    As Rome denied Etruria
    And mechanical America Montezuma still.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
