Best Quotes about Politics

1.
In argument, truth always prevails finally; in politics, falsehood always.
Landor, Walter Savage

2.
Nothing can be said about our politics that has not already been said about hemorrhoids.

3.
Politics is a place of humble hopes and strangely modest requirements, where all are good who are not criminal and all are wise who are not ridiculously otherwise.
Colby, Frank Moore

4.
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.

Clinton, Bill

6.
Politics has less to do with where you live than where your heart is.
Margaret Cho

Baudrillard, Jean

15.
Let us not forget that we can never go farther than we can persuade at least half of the people to go.
Gaitskell, Hugh

16.
The highest political buzz word is not liberty, equality, fraternity or solidarity; it is service.
Clough, Arthur Hugh

17.
If a politician isn't doing it to his wife , then he's doing it to his country.
Grant, Amy

18.
There are times in politics when you must be on the right side and lose.
Galbraith, John Kenneth

19.
The news of any politician's death should be listed under Public Improvements.
Dane, Frank

20.
I have come to the conclusion that politics are too serious a matter to be left to the politicians.
Charles De Gaulle

21.
You know, what I very well know, that I bought you. And I know, what perhaps you think I don't know, you are now selling yourselves to somebody else; and I know, what you do not know, that I am buying another borough. May God's curse light upon you all: may your houses be as open and common to all Excise Officers as your wives and daughters were to me, when I stood for your scoundrel corporation.
Henley, Anthony

22.
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

23.
A politician is a statesman who approaches every question with an open mouth.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

24.
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

25.
Did you ever notice that when a politician does get an idea he usually gets it all wrong.
Marquis, Don

26.
Politicians are people who, when they see light at the end of the tunnel, go out and buy some more tunnel.
Quinton, John

27.
We are not just here to manage capitalism but to change society and to define its finer values.
Benn, Tony

28.
When a man assumes a public trust he should consider himself a public property.
Jefferson, Thomas

29.
When they call the roll in the Senate, the senators do not know whether to answer present or not guilty.
Roosevelt, Theodore

30.
We are the trade union for pensioners and children, the trade union for the disabled and the sick... the trade union for the nation as a whole.
Heath, Edward

31.
It only takes a politician believing in what he says for the others to stop believing him.
Baudrillard, Jean

32.
Politics is not worrying this country one-tenth as much as where to find a parking space.
Rogers, Will

33.
Nothing is so abject and pathetic as a politician who has lost his job, save only a retired stud-horse.
Mencken, H. L.

34.
In politics the middle way is none at all.
Adams, John

35.
What is a democrat? One who believes that the republicans have ruined the country. What is a republican? One who believes that the democrats would ruin the country.
Bierce, Ambrose

36.
Bad officials are the ones elected by good citizens who do not vote.
Nathan, George Jean

A passion for politics stems usually from an insatiable need, either for power, or for friendship and adulation, or a combination of both.

42.
In the school of political projectors, I was but ill entertained, the professors appearing, in my judgment, wholly out of their senses; which is a scene that never fails to make me melancholy. These unhappy people were proposing schemes for persuading monarchs to choose favorites upon the score of their wisdom, capacity, and virtue; of teaching ministers to consult the public good; of rewarding merit, great abilities, and eminent services, of instructing princes to know their true interest, by placing it on the same foundation with that of their people; of choosing for employment persons qualified to exercise them; with many other wild impossible chimeras, that never entered before into the heart of man to conceive; and confirmed in me the old observation, that there is nothing so extravagant and irrational which some philosophers have not maintained for truth.
Swift, Jonathan

43.
All political parties die at last of swallowing their own lies.
Arbuthnot, John

Ninety percent of politicians give the other ten percent a bad reputation.
Kissinger, Henry

46.
Politics is perhaps the only profession for which no preparation is thought necessary.
Robert Louis Stevenson

47.
It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first.
Reagan, Ronald

48.
Crime does not pay ... as well as politics.
Alfred E. Newman

49.
In politics we presume that everyone who knows how to get votes knows how to administer a city or a state. When we are ill... we do not ask for the handsomest physician, or the most eloquent one.
Plato

50.
A majority is always better than the best repartee.
Disraeli, Benjamin
