It was Leonard Woolf who wrote  ‘Virginia was the least political animal 
that has lived since Aristotle invented the definition’ (1967: 27).

  Good morning,




  Is it in his biography of Woolf that Quentin Bell says she was "the 
least political animal that has lived since Aristotle invented the 
definition"? And if so, does anyone know whereabouts in the tome he says 
it?




  Many thanks,




  Kristin
