Politics for the Greatest Good Quotes

“A Statesman in contact with the moving current of events and anxious to keep the ship on an even keel and steer a steady course may lean all his weight now on one side and now on the other. His arguments in each case when contrasted can be shown to be not only very different in character, but contradictory in spirit and opposite in direction: yet his object will throughout have remained the same.”
― Clarke D. Forsythe, Politics for the Greatest Good: The Case for Prudence in the Public Square
