Political Rumor

Famous quotes containing the words political and/or rumor:

“My dear young friend ... civilization has absolutely no need of nobility or heroism. These things are symptoms of political inefficiency. In a properly organized society like ours, nobody has any opportunities for being noble or heroic. Conditions have got to be thoroughly unstable before the occasion can arise.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

“I heard a bustling rumor like a fray,
And the wind blows it from the Capitol.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
