Popular Front Government

Famous quotes containing the words popular, front and/or government:

    We live under continual threat of two equally fearful, but seemingly opposed, destinies: unremitting banality and inconceivable terror. It is fantasy, served out in large rations by the popular arts, which allows most people to cope with these twin specters.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    I am going to send an angel in front of you, to guard you on the way and to bring you to the place that I have prepared.
    Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 23:20.

    I have heard, in such a way as to believe it, of your recently saying that both the Army and the Government needed a Dictator. Of course it was not for this, but in spite of it, that I have given you the command. Only those generals who gain success, can set up dictators.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
