Political Rumor

Famous quotes containing the words political and/or rumor:

“The man possessed of a dollar, feels himself to be not merely one hundred cents richer, but also one hundred cents better, than the man who is penniless; so on through all the gradations of earthly possessions—the estimate of our own moral and political importance swelling always in a ratio exactly proportionate to the growth of our purse.”
—Frances Wright (1795–1852)

“One rumor straight comes huddling on another
Of death, and death, and death!”
