Best Quotes about Politics

1.
Nothing is irreparable in politics.
Anouilh, Jean

2.
He knows very little of mankind who expects, by any facts or reasoning, to convince a determined party man.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar

What this country needs is more unemployed politicians.
Langley, Edward

15.
Politics is largely a matter of heart.
R. A. Butler

As in private life one differentiates between what a man thinks and says of himself and what he really is and does, so in historical struggles one must still more distinguish the language and the imaginary aspirations of parties from their real organism and their real interests, their conception of themselves from their reality.
Marx, Karl

17.
The heaviest penalty for deciding to engage in politics is to be ruled by someone inferior to yourself.
Plato

18.
Politics is the skilled use of blunt objects.
Lester B. Pearson

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

20.
The house of Lords is a model on how to care for the elderly.
Field, Franklin

21.
I find myself... hoping a total end of all the unhappy divisions of mankind by party-spirit, which at best is but the madness of many for the gain of a few.
Pope, Alexander

22.
You have to have been a Republican to know how good it is to be a Democrat.
Onassis, Jacqueline Kennedy

Marx, Karl

Idealism is the noble toga that political gentlemen drape over their will to power.
Huxley, Aldous

A politician thinks of the next election. A statesman, of the next generation.
Clarke, James Freeman

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

33.
Son, in politics you've got to learn that overnight chicken shit can turn to chicken salad.
Johnson, Lyndon B.

34.
One has to be a lowbrow, a bit of a murderer, to be a politician, ready and willing to see people sacrificed, slaughtered, for the sake of an idea, whether a good one or a bad one.
Miller, Henry

35.
He could not see a belt without hitting below it.
Asquith, Margot

36.
In politics the middle way is none at all.
Adams, John

37.
Politics is a profession where the paths of glory lead but to the gravy.
Franklin, Billy Boy

38.
The average educated man in America has about as much knowledge of what a political idea is as he has of the principles of counterpoint. Each is a thing used in politics or music which those fellows who practice politics or music manipulate somehow. Show him one and he will deny that it is politics at all. It must be corrupt or he will not recognize it. He has only seen dried figs. He has only thought dried thoughts. A live thought or a real idea is against the rules of his mind.
Chapman, John Jay

39.
I am in politics because of the conflict between good and evil, and I believe that in the end good will triumph.
Thatcher, Margaret

40.
A politician is one that would circumvent God.
Shakespeare, William

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

45.

Rogers, Will

46.
Politics is far more complicated than physics.
Einstein, Albert

47.
A radical is a man with both feet firmly planted in the air.
Roosevelt, Franklin D.

48.
Political organizations have slowly substituted themselves for the Churches as the places for believing practices. Politics has once again become religious.
Certeau, Michel De

49.
If there is anything a public servant hates to do it is something for the public.
Hubbard, Kin

50.
Politicians have the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year. And to have the ability afterward to explain why it didn't happen.
