Politics Quotes

Modern systematic politics, whether liberal, conservative, radical, or socialist, simply has to be rejected from a standpoint that owes genuine allegiance to the tradition of the virtues; for modern politics itself expresses in its institutional forms a systematic rejection of that tradition Picture Quote #1

It’s because of distribution, and that’s the politics of hate, which is why this is a movement against that. It’s a politics of love Picture Quote #1

People ask whether I put the politics first, journalism first or the comedy first; it doesn’t really matter. I’m just playing with the cards that I have been dealt because I really love doing what I do Picture Quote #1

I don’t care what your politics are, but I do suggest you pay attention to the next election and go out and vote. It doesn’t matter; you can believe whatever you want to believe, but this is the time everybody should be paying a lot of attention Picture Quote #1

Today, much of journalism and politics are in a kind of collusion to oversimplify and personalize issues. No room for ambivalence. Plenty of room for the personal attack Picture Quote #1

You must survive with grace. You must do so gallantly. How archaic these terms seem to us in our modern world. There is little grace or gallantry in commerce or politics and not much in art Picture Quote #1

The experience of previous years leads to one conclusion: there is one morality in politics and another for economy. In the years since 1989, the morality of the economy has fully prevailed over the ethics of politics and democracy Picture Quote #1

I am convinced that those who get themselves involved in the machinery of power politics, even for the purpose of destroying it, are bound to fail in their purpose. To destroy it we have to stay out of it. If we want to cut down a tree, it is of no use to climb into its branches. The desire to keep contact with something, even to destroy it, is a subtle and insidious illusion Picture Quote #1

I’m interested in politics, what’s going on in the world, how people behave and how your life is often in the hands of other people Picture Quote #1

I don’t find biology as interesting as politics and humanism. I talk more about existential stuff Picture Quote #1

You can’t afford to hate politics. The politics of this country is democracy. Democracy is by the people, of the people and for the people. The day people stop taking active part in the politics of this country, democracy will not survive Picture Quote #1

In politics, one can learn some things from cycling, such as how to have character and courage. Sometimes in politics there isn’t enough of those things Picture Quote #1

I am not interested in politics at all. At home, around the dinner table, we never discuss politics Picture Quote #1

To say that one need art, or politics, that incorporate ambiguity and contradiction is not to say that one then stops recognizing and condemning things as evil. However, it might stop one being so utterly convinced of the certainty of one’s own solutions. There needs to be a strong understanding of fallibility and how the very act of certainty or authoritativeness can bring disasters Picture Quote #1

I engage with local politics because it affects people I love. And I engage in national politics because it affects people I love Picture Quote #1

I’m not interested in what the public thinks. My fight is in the courts. And while I have been fighting with the appeal it has been an uphill battle because I am an unpopular cause. Too much public pressure, too much politics. To give me a hearing so that I can prove that the state withheld evidence favourable to me, that the identifications of some of the victims was wrong, and that my attorney was more concerned about book rights and how sensationally more the case could get the higher the value of the book Picture Quote #1

To me the desire to create and to have control over your own life, irrespective of the politics of the time or social structures, has always been a part of the human spirit. What I did not fully realize was that work could open the doors to my heart Picture Quote #1

Animals have come to mean so much in our lives. We live in a fragmented and disconnected culture. Politics are ugly, religion is struggling, technology is stressful, and the economy is unfortunate. What’s one thing that we have in our lives that we can depend on? A dog or a cat loving us unconditionally, every day, very faithfully Picture Quote #1

One of the reasons I came into politics was because I thought I lacked the skills to be a social worker Picture Quote #1
