Politics

Politics
... for our English grumbling is equally distributed between the weather and politics, and the case would be desperate when confined to the last.

Politics
Factions among yourselves; preferring such
To offices and honors, as ne'er read
The elements of saving policy;
But deeply skilled in all the principles
That usher to destruction.
