Yves Leterme/2007%e2%80%932008 Political Stalemate

Famous quotes containing the words political and/or stalemate:

    Although knaves win in every political struggle, although society seems to be delivered over from the hands of one set of criminals into the hands of another set of criminals, as fast as the government is changed, and the march of civilization is a train of felonies, yet, general ends are somehow answered.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Courage is in the air in bracing whiffs
    Better than all the stalemate an’s and ifs.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
