Political Reform

Famous quotes containing the words political and/or reform:

    ...I don’t have an inner drive to do as well as anybody else ... I have a great pleasure in writing and part of that is political and part of that is I’m surprised that I’ve done as well as I have. I really am just surprised.
    Grace Paley (b. 1922)

    There is no such thing as accomplishing a righteous reform by the use of “expediency.” There is no such thing as sliding up- hill. In morals the only sliders are backsliders.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
