Cant is always
rather nauseating; but before we condemn political
hypocrisy, let us remember that it is the tribute paid by
men of leather to men of God, and that the acting of the
part of someone better than oneself may actually commit one
to a course of behavior perceptibly less evil than what
would be normal and natural in an avowed cynic.
-- Aldous Huxley
1894-1963, British Author
Idealism is
the noble toga that political gentlemen drape over their
will to power.
-- Aldous Huxley
1894-1963, British Author
There is no
sea more dangerous than the ocean of practical politics --
none in which there is more need of good pilots and of a
single, unfaltering purpose when the waves rise high.
-- Thomas H. Huxley
1825-1895, British Biologist,
Educator
My
constituency is the desperate, the damned, the disinherited,
the disrespected and the despised.
-- Jesse Jackson
1941-, American Clergyman,
Civil Rights Leader
