Weights and measures of their own

«A politician`s character and position are measured in his day by party standards. When he is dead, all that he achieved in the name of party is at an end. The eulogies and censures of partisans are powerless to affect his ultimate reputation. The scales wherein he was weighed are broken. The years to come bring weights and measures of their own.»
