Political Fairy

Famous quotes containing the words political and/or fairy:

“We ask for no statistics of the killed,
For nothing political impinges on
This single casualty, or all those gone,
Missing or healing, sinking or dispersed,
Hundreds of thousands counted, millions lost.”
—Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

“Why should we strive, with cynic frown,
To knock their fairy castles down?”
—Eliza Cook (1818–1889)
