Politics Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Politics

1.
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.

2.
Political success is the ability, when the inevitable occurs, to get credit for it.
Peter, Laurence J.

3.
A political convention is not a place where you can come away with any trace of faith in human nature.
Kempton, Murray

4.
A candidate could easily commit political suicide if he were to come up with an unconventional thought during a presidential tour.
White, Elwyn Brooks

5.
Politics is the art of the next best.
Bismarck, Otto Von

6.
Hell hath no fury like a crooked politician denied his cut.
Montalbano, Benjamin J.

7.
I have come to the conclusion that politics are too serious a matter to be left to the politicians.
Charles De Gaulle

8.
We mean by politics the people's business -- the most important business there is.
Stevenson, Adlai E.

9.
Politics is not worrying this country one-tenth as much as where to find a parking space.
Rogers, Will

10.
What we need in appointive positions are men of knowledge and experience with sufficient character to resist temptations.
Coolidge, Calvin

11.
Man is by nature a political animal.
Aristotle

12.
Politics doesn't make strange bedfellows, marriage does.
Marx, Groucho

13.
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

14.
I don't care who does the electing as long as I get to do the nominating.
Tweed, Boss

15.
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

16.
If you can't stand a little sacrifice and you can't stand a trip across the desert with limited water, we're never going to straighten this country out.
Perot, H. Ross

17.
The Prime Minister has an absolute genius for putting flamboyant labels on empty luggage.
Bevan, Aneurin

18.
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

19.
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

20.
Once you run for office, you're in it -- sort of like going into the military. You'd better be damned sure it is what you want to do and that the rest of your life is set up to accommodate that. It takes a certain toll on your personality and on your family life. I've seen it personally.
Kennedy Jr., John F.

21.
In politics, an absurdity in public business is going into it.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

22.
A constitutional statesman is in general a man of common opinions and uncommon abilities.
Bagehot, Walter

23.
The essential ingredient in politics is timing.
Trudeau, Pierre Elliott

24.
The House of Lords is the British Outer Mongolia for retired politicians.
Benn, Tony

25.
The mistake a lot of politicians make is in forgetting they've been appointed and thinking they've been anointed.
Pepper, Claude D.

26.
The politician who never made a mistake never made a decision.
Major, John

27.
The first mistake in public business is going into it.
Franklin, Benjamin

28.
To know your place is a good idea in politics. That is not to say stay in your place or hang on to your place, because ambition or boredom may dictate upward or downward mobility, but a sense of place -- a feel for one's own position in the control room -- is useful in gauging what you should try to do.
Safire, William

29.
A politician is a man who understands government and it takes a politician to run a government. A statesman is a politician who's been dead for fifteen years.
Truman, Harry S

30.
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

31.
I never said all Democrats were saloonkeepers; what I said was all saloonkeepers are Democrats.
Greeley, Horace

32.
Any man with a fine shock of hair, a good set of teeth, and a bewitching smile can park his brains, if he has any, and run for public office.

33.
Finality is not the language of politics.
Disraeli, Benjamin

34.
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.

35.
Many politicians lay it down as a self-evident proposition, that no people ought to be free till they are fit to use their freedom. The maxim is worthy of the fool in the old story, who resolved not to go into the water till he had learned to swim.
Macaulay, Lord

36.
A politician is an ass upon which everyone has sat except a man.
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. E.)

37.
Sometimes in politics one must duel with skunks, but no one should be fool enough to allow skunks to choose the weapons.
Cannon, Joseph

38.
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

39.
Nobody is a friend of ours. Let's face it.
Nixon, Richard M.

40.
The trouble with practical jokes is that very often they get elected.
Rogers, Will

41.
In politics... shared hatreds are almost always the basis of friendships.
Tocqueville, Alexis De

42.
The reason political party platforms are so long is that when you straddle anything it takes a long time to explain it.
Rogers, Will

43.
The one thing sure about politics is that what goes up comes down and what goes down often comes up.
Nixon, Richard M.

44.
Politics are such a torment that I would advise every one I love not to mix with them.
Jefferson, Thomas

45.
Religion is organized to satisfy and guide the soul -- politics does the same thing for the body.
Cary, Joyce

46.
Son, in politics you've got to learn that overnight chicken shit can turn to chicken salad.
Johnson, Lyndon B.

47.
Politics is the gentle art of getting votes from the poor and campaign funds from the rich by promising to protect each from the other.
Ameringer, Oscar

48.
The human being is in the most literal sense a political animal, not merely a gregarious animal, but an animal which can individuate itself only in the midst of society.
Marx, Karl

49.
I am really sorry to see my countrymen trouble themselves about politics. If men were wise, the most arbitrary princes could not hurt them. If they are not wise, the freest government is compelled to be a tyranny. Princes appear to me to be fools. Houses of Commons and Houses of Lords appear to me to be fools; they seem to me to be something else besides human life.
Blake, William

50.
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.
