Political Quotes

Voting is actually an exercise in futility and only used to convey false credibility to a controlled political system totally divorced from the people Picture Quote #1

It is a logical absurdity to equate democracy with freedom in the way that mainstream political philosophers and commentators typically do. A system where individuals and minorities are at the mercy of unconstrained majorities hardly constitutes freedom in any meaningful sense Picture Quote #1

We must first note that economic factors are taken into account in a world in which ignorance, prejudice, and mental confusion, encouraged rather than dispelled by the political organization, exert a strong influence on policy making Picture Quote #1

The addability of the happiness of different subjects is a postulum without which all political reasonings are at a stand Picture Quote #1

Unemployment is bigger than a political party. It is a national danger and a national scandal Picture Quote #1

Economic freedom has no security without political freedom, and political freedom can find its security only in economic freedom Picture Quote #1

The timing and characteristics of state intervention affect not only organizational tactics and strategies, but the content and definition of interest itself... Some scholars have directly stressed that state interventions create corporatist forms... the formation, let alone the political capabilities, of such purely socioeconomic phenomena as interest groups and classes depends in significant measure on the structures and activities of the very states the social actors, in turn, seek to influence Picture Quote #1

Autonomous state actions will regularly take forms that attempt to reinforce the authority, political longevity, and social control of the state Picture Quote #1

When women are pessimistic about their political strength and feel hopeless about changing the conditions of their lives, it is almost as if they do not believe that democracy means the country belongs to them. But it’s true Picture Quote #1

Human security comes only with human rights and the rule of law. Human rights are the basis for creating strong and accountable states without which there can be no political stability or social progress Picture Quote #1

Discrimination and multiple deprivations of human rights are also frequently part of the problem, sentencing entire populations to poverty... It is surely a matter of outrage that over half a million women die annually from complications related to pregnancy and childbirth. This is nearly half the annual global death toll, and arguably, a direct reflection of the disempowerment of women in social, economic and political life Picture Quote #1

The best results in the operation of a government wherein every citizen has a share largely depend upon a proper limitation of the purely partisan zeal and effort and a correct appreciation of the time when the heat of the partisan should be merged in the patriotism of the citizen... At this hour the animosities of political strife, the bitterness of partisan defeat, and the exultation of partisan triumph should be supplanted by an ungrudging acquiescence in the popular will and a sober, conscientious concern for the general weal... Public extravagance begets extravagance among the people Picture Quote #1

People might not protest for overtly political or social causes, but when they can’t feed themselves and their family, they will take to the streets Picture Quote #1

The concept that one ought to restrict one’s political involvement to one’s own state was deeply antithetical to those who were pursuing the accumulation of capital for its own sake Picture Quote #1

Repeatedly asking for government help undermines the foundations of society by destroying initiative and responsibility. It is also a fatal blow to efficiency and corrupts the political process Picture Quote #1

As in forming a political society, each individual contributes some of his rights, in order that he may, from a common stock of rights, derive greater benefits, than he could from merely his own; so, in forming a confederation, each political society should contribute such a share of their rights, as will, from a common stock of these rights, produce the largest quantity of benefits for them Picture Quote #1

In speaking of natural rights, therefore, it is essential to remember that these alleged rights have no political force whatsoever, unless recognized and enforced by the state Picture Quote #1

We are not to consider ourselves, while here, as at church or school, to listen to the harangues of speculative piety; we are here to talk of the political interests committed to our charge Picture Quote #1

Migration is a feature of globalisation. You can’t stop it; so every time a political party says it is going to be tough on immigration, it fails to deliver and loses trust Picture Quote #1

People are aware that they cannot continue in the same old way but are immobilized because they cannot imagine an alternative. We need a vision that recognizes that we are at one of the great turning points in human history when the survival of our planet and the restoration of our humanity require a great sea change in our ecological, economic, political, and spiritual values Picture Quote #1

I don’t consider this younger generation to be lost, quite the opposite, they must continue. It is up to them. The old political system no longer functions Picture Quote #1

Architecture and architectural freedom are above all a social issue that must be seen from inside a political structure, not from outside it Picture Quote #1

The security challenge is related to the progress and advance we make in the political process Picture Quote #1

I didn’t think of what I was doing as political. To me it was a way to make the best out of what I liked to do privately, which was to dress up Picture Quote #1

I have no time for political hacks who say things they don’t believe because they get paid to Picture Quote #1

I’d like to see people pay attention to the science of hip hop. The knowledge part, the political side of what hip hop could do, or where hip hop is gonna go. I always say it’s gonna become universal as we become a galactic union Picture Quote #1

In these days of political, personal and economic disintegration, music is not a luxury, it’s a necessity; not simply because it is therapeutic, nor because it is the universal language, but because it is the persistent focus of our intelligence, aspiration and goodwill Picture Quote #1

It was a mistake to speak one’s mind at any time, unless it perfectly matched your political purpose; and it never did Picture Quote #1

Women have always collected things and saved and recycled them because leftovers yielded nourishment in new forms. The decorative functional objects women made often spoke in a secret language, bore a covert imagery. When we read these images in needlework, in paintings, in quilts, rugs and scrapbooks, we sometimes find a cry for help, sometimes an allusion to a secret political alignment, sometimes a moving symbol about the relationships between men and women Picture Quote #1

I’m interested in telling the character’s story, not my beliefs, political or otherwise Picture Quote #1
