A human being fashions his consequences as surely as he fashions his goods or his dwelling his goods or his dwelling. Nothing that he says, thinks or does is without consequences.
Norman Cousins
A politician is the devil's quilted anvil; He fashions all sins on him, and the blows are never heard.
John Webster
