Nothing is so
foolish, they say, as for a man to stand for office and woo
the crowd to win its vote, buy its support with presents,
court the applause of all those fools and feel
self-satisfied when they cry their approval, and then in his
hour of triumph to be carried round like an effigy for the
public to stare at, and end up cast in bronze to stand in
the market place.
-- Desiderius Erasmus
c.1466-1536, Dutch Humanist
The house of
Lords is a model on how to care for the elderly.
-- Franklin Field
What this
country needs is radicals who will stay that way regardless
of the creeping years.
-- John Fischer
