Ever need a brilliant political quote?

[cali]

Don't forget Adlai Stevenson. Another thread reminded me of Stevenson. He was brilliant and eminently quotable. Take for example, this:

We travel together, passengers on a little spaceship, dependent on it's vulnerable reserves of air and soil, all committed, for our safety, to it's security and peace. Preserved from annihilation only by the care, the work and the love we give our fragile craft.

Or:

If the Republicans would promise to stop lying about Democrats, we'd promise to stop telling the truth about them.
