Cool Political Quotes

Something a little more positive on this board.  

I saw this yesterday in the Reynolds Pamphlet, the thing Hamilton wrote to show he wasn’t abusing his office as Sec of Treasury and instead was just having an affair. 

“Lies often detected and refuted are still revived and repeated, in the hope that the refutation may have been forgotten, or that the frequency and boldness of the accusation may supply the place of truth and proof.” 

Saw that and thought dang the more things change the more they stay the same.

 

My favorite quote is from Churchill when he was debating with Parliament whether to make separate peace with Hitler or fight on.  Prior to US joining the effort when things looked grim. 
 

“If this long island story of ours is to end at last, let it end only when each one of us lies choking in his own blood upon the ground.”
