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)
