Best Quotes about Politics
Politics has never been for the thin-skinned or the faint of heart, and if you enter the arena , you should expect to get roughed up. Moreover, Democracy in a nation of more than 300 million people is inherently difficult.
President Barack Obama
It is a vain hope to make people happy by politics.
Carlyle, Thomas
Politics are usually the executive expression of human immaturity.
Brittain, Vera
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
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
What do you want to be a sailor for? There are greater storms in politics than you will ever find at sea. Piracy, broadsides, blood on the decks. You will find them all in politics.
George, David Lloyd
The mistake a lot of politicians make is in forgetting they've been appointed and thinking they've been anointed.
Pepper, Claude D.
Democrats can't get elected unless things get worse, and things won't get worse unless they get elected.
Kirkpatrick, Jeane
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
Politics is a choice of enemas. You're gonna get it up the ass, no matter what you do.
Higgins, George V.
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
The Empress is legitimate, my cousin is Republican, Morny is Orleanist, I am a socialist; the only Bonapartist is Persigny, and he is mad.
Napoleon III
In politics, it seems, retreat is honorable if dictated by military considerations and shameful if even suggested for ethical reasons.
Mccarthy, Mary
Since a politician never believes what he says, he is surprised when others believe him.
Gaulle, Charles De
Politics is the skilled use of blunt objects.
Lester B. Pearson
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.
A politician is an ass upon which everyone has sat except a man.
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. E.)
He knows very little of mankind who expects, by any facts or reasoning, to convince a determined party man.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar
If American politics does not look to you like a joke, a tragic dance; if you have enough blindness left in you, on any plea, on any excuse, to vote for the Democratic Party or the Republican Party (for at present machine and party are one), or for any candidate who does not stand for a new era, -- then you yourself pass into the slide of the magic-lantern; you are an exhibit, a quaint product, a curiosity of the American soil. You are part of the problem.
Chapman, John Jay
I'm not a member of any organized political party, I'm a Democrat!
Rogers, Will
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.
A politician thinks of the next election. A statesman, of the next generation.
Clarke, James Freeman
Things must be done by parties, not by persons using parties as tools.
Disraeli, Benjamin
It takes a politician to run a government. A statesman is a politician who's been dead for fifteen years.
Truman, Harry S
In politics people give you what they think you deserve and deny you what they think you want.
Parkinson, Cecil
We mean by politics the people's business -- the most important business there is.
Stevenson, Adlai E.
If it's going to come out eventually, better have it come out immediately.
Kissinger, Henry
Politics is the art of the next best.
Bismarck, Otto Von
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.
Forbes, Malcolm S.
The bright old day now dawns again; the cry runs through the land, in England there shall be dear bread -- in Ireland,sword and brand; and poverty, and ignorance, shall swell the rich and grand, so rally round the rulers with the gentle iron hand, of the fine old English Tory days; hail to the coming time!
Dickens, Charles
Elected leaders who forget how they got there won't the next time.
Forbes, Malcolm S.
In Mexico an air conditioner is called a politician because it makes a lot of noise but doesn't work very well.
Deighton, Len
Some men change their party for the sake of their principles; others their principles for the sake of their party.
Churchill, Winston
A politician never forgets the precarious nature of elective life. We have never established a practice of tenure in public office.
Humphrey, Hubert H.
There is no gambling like politics. Nothing in which the power of circumstance is more evident.
Disraeli, Benjamin
Mediocrity in politics is not to be despised. Greatness is not needed.
Enzensberger, Hans Magnus
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.
Amis, Kingsley
At home you always have to be a politician. When you're abroad you almost feel yourself a statesman.
Macmillan, Harold
Ninety percent of politics is deciding whom to blame.
Greenfield, Meg
What we need in appointive positions are men of knowledge and experience with sufficient character to resist temptations.
Coolidge, Calvin
An honest politician is one who when he is bought will stay bought.
Cameron, W. J.
The only way you can do that [Balance The Budget, Decrease Taxes, and Increase Military Spending] is with mirrors, and that's what it would take.
Anderson, John B.
Never answer a question from a farmer.
Humphrey, Hubert H.
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
Politics, n. Strife of interests masquerading as a contest of principles.
Ambrose Bierce
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.
Beware the politically obsessed. They are often bright and interesting, but they have something missing in their natures; there is a hole, an empty place, and they use politics to fill it up. It leaves them somehow misshapen.
Noonan, Peggy
Ninety-eight percent of the adults in this country are decent, hard-working Americans. It is the other lousy two percent that get all the publicity. But then, we elected them.
Tomlin, Lily
Ignorance makes most men go into a political party, and shame keeps them from getting out of it.
Halifax, Edward F.
We have never yet had a labor Government that knew what taking power really means; they always act like second-class citizens.
Russell, Dora
