Party Boys

Famous quotes containing the words party and/or boys:

    When the doctrine of allegiance to party can utterly up-end a man’s moral constitution and make a temporary fool of him besides, what excuse are you going to offer for preaching it, teaching it, extending it, perpetuating it? Shall you say, the best good of the country demands allegiance to party? Shall you also say it demands that a man kick his truth and his conscience into the gutter, and become a mouthing lunatic, besides?
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    All night in the unmade park
    After the railings and shrubberies
    The birds the grass the trees the lake
    And the wild boys innocent as strawberries
    Had followed the hunchback
    To his kennel in the dark.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
