Wonderful, Liz! Thank you for that gem. Never heard it before, and will not forget it.
I did a quick search and it looks like a French philosopher coined the phrase:
“A society of sheep must in time beget a government of wolves” has been credited to French philosopher Bertrand de Jouvenel (1903-1987) since at least 1949.
Always remember..........
Pols are the lowest form of human life.
Plato wrote that in an ideal society any person merely expressing a desire for public office should be àutomatically disqualified.
