Motivational Quotes
Politics
Few businessmen are capable of being in politics, they don't understand the democratic process, they have neither the tolerance or the depth it takes. Democracy isn't a business.
Best Quotes about Politics
My deepest feeling about politicians is that they are dangerous lunatics to be avoided when possible and carefully humored; people, above all, to whom one must never tell the truth.
Auden, W. H.
Party leads to vicious, corrupt and unprofitable legislation, for the sole purpose of defeating party.
Cooper, James F.
In politics you must always keep running with the pack. The moment that you falter and they sense that you are injured, the rest will turn on you like wolves.
R. A. Butler
In politics, an absurdity in public business is going into it.
Bonaparte, Napoleon
The politician who never made a mistake never made a decision.
Major, John
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
Religion is organized to satisfy and guide the soul -- politics does the same thing for the body.
Cary, Joyce
Politics doesn't make strange bedfellows, marriage does.
Marx, Groucho
I played by the rules of politics as I found them.
Nixon, Richard M.
There are two types of politicians: the ones that are courageous and honest, and the ones that have a steep career.
Kocher, Gerhard
The House of Lords is the British Outer Mongolia for retired politicians.
Benn, Tony
If everybody in this town connected with politics had to leave town because of chasing women and drinking, you would have no government.
Goldwater, Barry
Every clique is a refuge for incompetence. It fosters corruption and disloyalty, it begets cowardice, and consequently is a burden upon and a drawback to the progress of the country. Its instincts and actions are those of the pack.
Chiang Kai-Shek, Madame
We assume that politicians are without honor. We read their statements trying to crack the code. The scandals of their politics: not so much that men in high places lie, only that they do so with such indifference, so endlessly, still expecting to be believed. We are accustomed to the contempt inherent in the political lie.
Rich, Adrienne
A politician divides mankind into two classes; tools and enemies.
Fredrich
When great questions end, little parties begin.
Bagehot, Walter
Politics is about putting yourself in a state of grace.
Ashdown, Paddy
Politics can be relatively fair in the breathing spaces of history; at its critical turning points there is no other rule possible than the old one, that the end justifies the means.
Koestler, Arthur
If there is anything a public servant hates to do it is something for the public.
Hubbard, Kin
All political parties die at last of swallowing their own lies.
Arbuthnot, John
Political speech and writing are largely the defense of the indefensible.
Orwell, George
A passion for politics stems usually from an insatiable need, either for power, or for friendship and adulation, or a combination of both.
Brodie, Fawn M.
You slam a politician, you make out he's the devil, with horns and hoofs. But his wife loves him, and so did all his mistresses.
Johnson, Pamela Hansford
Sincerity and competence is a strong combination. In politics, it is everything.
Noonan, Peggy
The work of the political activist inevitably involves a certain tension between the requirement that position be taken on current issues as they arise and the desire that one's contributions will somehow survive the ravages of time.
Davis, Angela Y.
You are pitiful isolated individuals; you are bankrupts; your role is played out. Go where you belong from now on -- into the dustbin of history!
Trotsky, Leon
Let us not forget that we can never go farther than we can persuade at least half of the people to go.
Gaitskell, Hugh
Don't buy a single vote more than necessary. I'll be damned if I'm going to pay for a landslide.
Kennedy, Joseph
Politics is a profession where the paths of glory lead but to the gravy.
Franklin, Billy Boy
Politicians should never put themselves first: governments should put people first and all of us should put our country first.
If a politician isn't doing it to his wife , then he's doing it to his country.
Grant, Amy
Nothing is so abject and pathetic as a politician who has lost his job, save only a retired stud-horse.
Mencken, H. L.
Politics has less to do with where you live than where your heart is.
Margaret Cho
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
What this country needs is radicals who will stay that way regardless of the creeping years.
Fischer, John
In politics, as on the sickbed, people toss from side to side, thinking they will be more comfortable.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
If I was forced to choose between the penitentiary and White House for four years, I would say the penitentiary, thank you.
Sherman, William T.
Only he has the calling for politics who is sure that he will not crumble when the world from his point of view is too stupid or base for what he wants to offer. Only he who in the face of all this can say In spite of all! has the calling for politics.
Weber, Max
People start parades -- politicians just get out in front and act like they're leading.
Rinehart, Dana Gillman
No party is as bad as its leaders.
Rogers, Will
A politician never forgets the precarious nature of elective life. We have never established a practice of tenure in public office.
Humphrey, Hubert H.
Those who corrupt the public mind are just as evil as those who steal from the public purse.
Stevenson, Adlai E.
The greatest art of a politician is to render vice serviceable to the cause of virtue.
Bolingbroke, Henry
People say I'm indecisive, but I don't know about that.
Bush, George
Politic is going to be diluted down into a ten second window, where you whack the guy as hard as you can and then get out there.
Dixon, Alan
This country has gotten where it is in spite of politics, not by the aid of it. That we have carried as much political bunk as we have and still survived shows we are a super nation.
Rogers, Will
In politics a straight line is the shortest distance to disaster.
Roche, John P.
People with high ideals don't necessarily make good politicians. If clean politics is so important, we should leave the job to scientists and the clergy.
Watanabe, Michio
The heaviest penalty for deciding to engage in politics is to be ruled by someone inferior to yourself.
Plato
Now, we deny not, but that politicians may sometimes abuse religion, and make it serve for the promoting of their own private interests and designs; which yet they could not do so well neither, were the thing itself a mere cheat and figment of their own, and had no reality at all in nature, nor anything solid at the bottom of it.
Cudworth, Ralph J.
