Commonplace Book

'...Politicians are now of three kinds - the sugary, the soapy and the feathery. The first cover their vile opinions with sweetness; the second affect to keep other people's opinions clean; the third make their opinions so light of wing that they can fly away at a moment's warning...'

from The School for Saints by John Oliver Hobbes (Chapter V)
