Motivational Quotes
Politics
Growing older, I have lost the need to be political, which means, in this country, the need to be left. I am driven into grudging toleration of the Conservative Party because it is the party of non-politics, of resistance to politics.

Best Quotes about Politics
When a leader is in the Democratic Party he is a boss, and when he is in the Republican Party he is a leader.
Truman, Harry S
I'm not a member of any organized political party, I'm a Democrat!
Rogers, Will
Sincerity and competence is a strong combination. In politics, it is everything.
Noonan, Peggy
An honest politician is one who when he is bought will stay bought.
Cameron, W. J.
The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed [and Hence Clamorous To Be Led To Safety] by an endless series of hobgoblins.
Mencken, H. L.
All political parties die at last of swallowing their own lies.
Arbuthnot, John
The first requirement of politics is not intellect or stamina but patience. Politics is a very long run game and the tortoise will usually beat the hare.
Major, John
Politics, when I am in it, it makes me sick.
Taft, William Howard
Politics has become so expensive that it takes a lot of money even to be defeated.
Rogers, Will
The courts of kings are full of people, but empty of friends.
Seneca
Politicians have the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year. And to have the ability afterward to explain why it didn't happen.
Churchill, Winston
Politics is about putting yourself in a state of grace.
Ashdown, Paddy
An empty stomach is not a good political advisor.
Einstein, Albert

Politics doesn't make strange bedfellows, marriage does.
Marx, Groucho
It is as hard and severe a thing to be a true politician as to be truly moral.
Bacon, Francis
There are two types of politicians: the ones that are courageous and honest, and the ones that have a steep career.
Kocher, Gerhard
The news of any politician's death should be listed under Public Improvements.
Dane, Frank
Ignorance makes most men go into a political party, and shame keeps them from getting out of it.
Halifax, Edward F.
In the domain of Political Economy, free scientific inquiry meets not merely the same enemies as in all other domains. The peculiar nature of the material it deals with, summons as foes into the field of battle the most violent, mean and malignant passions of the human breast, the Furies of private interest.
Marx, Karl
What we need in appointive positions are men of knowledge and experience with sufficient character to resist temptations.
Coolidge, Calvin
The old parties are husks, with no real soul within either, divided on artificial lines, boss-ridden and privilege-controlled, each a jumble of incongruous elements, and neither daring to speak out wisely and fearlessly on what should be said on the vital issues of the day.
Roosevelt, Theodore
It only takes a politician believing in what he says for the others to stop believing him.
Baudrillard, Jean
When I was in England, I experimented with marijuana a time or two, and I didn't like it, and I didn't inhale, and I never tried again.
Clinton, Bill
Politics, n. Strife of interests masquerading as a contest of principles.
Ambrose Bierce
When you've got them by their wallets, their hearts and minds will follow.
Naito, Fern
Politics is the art of the next best.
Bismarck, Otto Von
You have to have been a Republican to know how good it is to be a Democrat.
Onassis, Jacqueline Kennedy
I always considered statesmen to be more expendable than soldiers.
Truman, Harry S
One wanders to the left, another to the right. Both are equally in error, but, are seduced by different delusions.
Horace
At home you always have to be a politician. When you're abroad you almost feel yourself a statesman.
Macmillan, Harold
Mediocrity in politics is not to be despised. Greatness is not needed.
Enzensberger, Hans Magnus
A constitutional statesman is in general a man of common opinions and uncommon abilities.
Bagehot, Walter
What the statesman is most anxious to produce is a certain moral character in his fellow citizens, namely a disposition to virtue and the performance of virtuous actions.
Aristotle
A politician would do well to remember that he has to live with his conscience longer than he does with his constituents.
Laird, Melvin R.
The newspaper reader says: this party will ruin itself if it makes errors like this. My higher politics says: a party which makes errors like this is already finished -- it is no longer secure in its instincts.
Nietzsche, Friedrich
If you're I politics and you can't tell when you walk into a room who's for you and who's against you, then you're in the wrong line of work.
Johnson, Lyndon B.
Politics are such a torment that I would advise every one I love not to mix with them.
Jefferson, Thomas
No political party has exclusive patent rights on prosperity.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.
Politics is the gizzard of society, full of gut and gravel.
Thoreau, Henry David
I played by the rules of politics as I found them.
Nixon, Richard M.
The Prime Minister has an absolute genius for putting flamboyant labels on empty luggage.
Bevan, Aneurin
The lounge of the main hotel is full of jollity, with large comfortable men sitting in braces; the bar is packed with talkative intellectuals, full of witty disloyalties. The next week the main hotel is suddenly full of dinner-jackets and large hats. The girls are dressed as if for a weekend in the country. When one of the great men of the party comes through, the crowd edges respectfully away, murmuring loyal noises.
Sampson, Anthony
The era of the political was one of anomie: crisis, violence, madness and revolution. The era of the trans-political is that of anomaly: an aberration of no consequence, contemporaneous with the event of no consequence.
Baudrillard, Jean
As usual the Liberals offer a mixture of sound and original ideas. Unfortunately none of the sound ideas is original and none of the original ideas is sound.
Macmillan, Harold
Circumstances give in reality to every political principle its distinguishing color and discriminating effect. The circumstances are what render every civil and political scheme beneficial or noxious to mankind.
Burke, Edmund
Politics are now nothing more than means of rising in the world. With this sole view do men engage in politics, and their whole conduct proceeds upon it.
Johnson, Samuel
A sophistical rhetorician, inebriated with the exuberance of his own verbosity, and gifted with an egotistical imagination that can at all times command an interminable and inconsistent series of arguments to malign an opponent and to glorify himself.
Disraeli, Benjamin
Bad officials are the ones elected by good citizens who do not vote.
Nathan, George Jean
