Politically Divided

Famous quotes containing the words politically and/or divided:

    Long before Einstein told us that matter is energy, Machiavelli and Hobbes and other modern political philosophers defined man as a lump of matter whose most politically relevant attribute is a form of energy called “self-interestedness.” This was not a portrait of man “warts and all.” It was all wart.
    George F. Will (b. 1941)

    This strange disease of modern life,
    With its sick hurry, its divided aims.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)
