—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“We are naïve and moralistic women. We are human beings. Who find politics a blight upon the human condition. And do not know how one copes with it except through politics.”
—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
“In politics people throw themselves, as on a sickbed, from one side to the other in the belief they will lie more comfortably.”
