Politics
Politics (from Greek: πολιτικά, translit. Politiká, meaning "affairs of the cities") is the process of making decisions that apply to members of a group.

Politics
All political power is a trust.
Charles James Fox (1788).
Politics
A weapon that comes down as still
As snowflakes fall upon the sod;
But executes a freeman's will,
As lightning does the will of God;
And from its force, nor doors nor locks
Can shield you; 'tis the ballot-box.
John Pierpont, A Word from a Petitioner.
Politics
One cannot look too closely at and weigh in too golden scales the acts of men hot in their political excitement.
Hawkins, J., Ex parte Castioni (1890), 60 L. J. Rep. (N. S.) Mag. Cas. 33.
