Other Henry B. Adams Quotes
Chaos often breeds life, when order breeds habit. Friends are born, not made. Politics, as a practice, whatever its professions, has always been the systematic organization of hatreds. The work of internal government has become the task of controlling the thousands of fifth-rate men. No man means all he says, and yet very few say all they mean, for words are slippery and thought is viscous.
