Politics

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
Politics Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Politics

Richardson, Elliot

An empty stomach is not a good political advisor.
Einstein, Albert

Herriot, Edouard

Dixon, Alan

Forbes, Malcolm S.

Ashdown, Paddy

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

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

Any established village; could afford a town drunkard, a town atheist, and a few Democrats.
Brogan, Denis E.

11.
It's a great country, where anybody can grow up to be president... except me.
Goldwater, Barry

12.
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

13.
It is the duty of every citizen according to his best capacities to give validity to his convictions in political affairs.
Albert Einstein

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

15.
It is unfair to expect a politician to live in private up to the statements he makes in public.
Maugham, W. Somerset

16.
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

17.
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

18.

Roosevelt, Theodore

19.

Rostand, Jean

23.
Although he's regularly asked to do so, God does not take sides in American politics.
Mitchell, George J.

24.
If it's going to come out eventually, better have it come out immediately.
Kissinger, Henry

25.
Political image is like mixing cement. When it's wet, you can move it around and shape it, but at some point it hardens and there's almost nothing you can do to reshape it.
Mondale, Walter F.

26.
The lounge of the main hotel is full of jollity, with large comfortable men sitting in braces; the bar is packed with talkative intellectuals, full of witty disloyalties. The next week the main hotel is suddenly full of dinner-jackets and large hats. The girls are dressed as if for a weekend in the country. When one of the great men of the party comes through, the crowd edges respectfully away, murmuring loyal noises.
Sampson, Anthony

27.
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

28.
Politics will sooner or later make fools of everybody.
Armey, Dick

George, David Lloyd

30.
The era of the political was one of anomie: crisis, violence, madness and revolution. The era of the trans-political is that of anomaly: an aberration of no consequence, contemporaneous with the event of no consequence.
Baudrillard, Jean

31.
Politics is the art of the next best.
Bismarck, Otto Von

32.
No political party has exclusive patent rights on prosperity.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

33.
There are times in politics when you must be on the right side and lose.
Galbraith, John Kenneth

34.
There is one rule for politicians all over the world: Don't say in Power what you say in opposition; if you do, you only have to carry out what the other fellows have found impossible.
Galsworthy, John

35.
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

36.
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

37.
The trouble with practical jokes is that very often they get elected.
Rogers, Will
