Politics Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Politics

1.
Party leads to vicious, corrupt and unprofitable legislation, for the sole purpose of defeating party.
Cooper, James F.

2.
I have come to the conclusion that politics are too serious a matter to be left to the politicians.
Charles De Gaulle

3.
Nothing can be said about our politics that has not already been said about hemorrhoids.

4.
The more you read and observe about this politics thing, the more you've got to admit that each party's worse than the other. The one that's out always looks the best.
Rogers, Will

5.
Politics is the profession of those who have neither trade nor art.
Hijazi, Muhammad

6.
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

7.
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

8.
Don't fall in love with politicians, they're all a disappointment. They can't help it, they just are.
Noonan, Peggy

9.
The aim of every political association is the preservation of the natural and imprescriptible rights of man. These rights are liberty, property, security and resistance to oppression.
French National Assembly

10.
Don't buy a single vote more than necessary. I'll be damned if I'm going to pay for a landslide.
Kennedy, Joseph

11.
When they call the roll in the Senate, the senators do not know whether to answer present or not guilty.
Roosevelt, Theodore

12.
It is far easier for the proverbial camel to pass through the needle's eye, hump and all, than for an erstwhile colonial administration to give sound and honest counsel of a political nature to its liberated territory.
Nkrumah, Kwame

13.
No wonder that, when a political career is so precarious, men of worth and capacity hesitate to embrace it. They cannot afford to be thrown out of their life's course by a mere accident.
Bryce, James

14.
My life's work has been accomplished. I did all that I could.
Gorbachev, Mikhail

15.
When the doctrine of allegiance to party can utterly up-end a man's moral constitution and make a temporary fool of him besides, what excuse are you going to offer for preaching it, teaching it, extending it, perpetuating it? Shall you say, the best good of the country demands allegiance to party? Shall you also say it demands that a man kick his truth and his conscience into the gutter, and become a mouthing lunatic, besides?
Twain, Mark

16.
Politics has become so expensive that it takes a lot of money even to be defeated.
Rogers, Will

17.
Nothing is so abject and pathetic as a politician who has lost his job, save only a retired stud-horse.
Mencken, H. L.

18.
What we need in appointive positions are men of knowledge and experience with sufficient character to resist temptations.
Coolidge, Calvin

19.
One thing about a pig, he thinks he's warm if his nose is warm. I saw a bunch of pigs one time that had frozen together in a rosette, each one's nose tucked under the rump of the one in front. We have a lot of pigs in politics.
Mccarthy, Eugene J.

20.
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

21.
The belief that politics can be scientific must inevitably produce tyrannies. Politics cannot be a science, because in politics theory and practice cannot be separated, and the sciences depend upon their separation. Empirical politics must be kept in bounds by democratic institutions, which leave it up to the subjects of the experiment to say whether it shall be tried, and to stop it if they dislike it, because, in politics, there is a distinction, unknown to science, between Truth and Justice.
Auden, W. H.

22.
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

23.
Ignorance makes most men go into a political party, and shame keeps them from getting out of it.
Halifax, Edward F.

24.
Nobody is a friend of ours. Let's face it.
Nixon, Richard M.

25.
In war you can be killed only once. In politics, many times.
Churchill, Winston

26.
The house of Lords is a model on how to care for the elderly.
Field, Franklin

27.
The most successful politician is he who says what everybody is thinking most often and in the loudest voice.
Roosevelt, Theodore

28.
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

29.
Heads of state are notoriously ill prepared for their mature careers; think of Adolf Hitler (landscape painter), Ho Chi Minh (seaman), and our own Ronald Reagan.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

30.
Politics, when I am in it, it makes me sick.
Taft, William Howard

31.
It is unfair to expect a politician to live in private up to the statements he makes in public.
Maugham, W. Somerset

32.
Politics is a choice of enemas. You're gonna get it up the ass, no matter what you do.
Higgins, George V.

33.
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

34.
No man is regular in his attendance at the House of Commons until he is married.
Disraeli, Benjamin

35.
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

36.
A promising young man should go into politics so that he can go on promising for the rest of his life.
Byrne, Robert

37.
The history of American politics is littered with bodies of people who took so pure a position that they had no clout at all.
Bradlee, Ben C.

38.
In politics, an absurdity in public business is going into it.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

39.
Rome had Senators too, and that is why it declined.
Dane, Frank

40.
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

41.
Therefore, the good of man must be the end of the science of politics.
Aristotle

42.
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

43.
Mediocrity in politics is not to be despised. Greatness is not needed.
Enzensberger, Hans Magnus

44.
I adore political parties. They are the only place left to us where people don't talk politics.
Wilde, Oscar

45.
Politics, n. Strife of interests masquerading as a contest of principles.
Ambrose Bierce

46.
Politics is applesauce.
Will Rogers

47.
A man who is a politician at forty is a statesman at three score and ten. It is at this age, when he would be too old to be a clerk or a gardener or a police-court magistrate, that he is ripe to govern a country.
Maugham, W. Somerset

48.
The first mistake in public business is going into it.
Franklin, Benjamin

49.
An honest politician is one who when he is bought will stay bought.
Cameron, W. J.

50.
Politics is a profession where the paths of glory lead but to the gravy.
Franklin, Billy Boy
