Famous quotes containing the words labour and/or party:

    ““To be born woman is to know—
    Although they do not talk of it at school—
    That we must labour to be beautiful.””
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “The real grounds of difference upon important political questions no longer correspond with party lines.... Politics is no longer the topic of this country. Its important questions are settled... Great minds hereafter are to be employed on other matters.... Government no longer has its ancient importance.... The people’s progress, progress of every sort, no longer depends on government. But enough of politics. Henceforth I am out more than ever.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
