Text Quotes
In sports, I was representing my country, but in politics I represent people directly. I have always lived with a cause. In army, it was the existence of the sanctity of nation and the men I was commanding, and in sports, it was the pride of my country, while in politics, it is the rights of citizens I am fighting for. (Politics Quotes)
I am not fond of speaking about politics because I don’t have in my possession an army of 200,000 soldiers. (Politics Quotes)

Ah, there’s a director. Astonishing, Spike Lee. A feisty guy, but a guy who’s, I think, incredibly misunderstood. I think people review his politics or his color as opposed to his filmmaking sometimes. Because he’s a wonderful, wonderful filmmaker and a lover of the art. (Politics Quotes)
I’ve always said that an art critic can put aside politics around art (Politics Quotes)
The truth is that sometimes art may not exactly reflect one’s personal politics, but the story, the drama, the thing you’re trying to say, might want to go in a certain direction, and while it may seem like it has resonance with things that are happening topically, you kind of want the world you’re creating to have its own internal logic. (Politics Quotes)
Part of my desire to play music was because I wanted to escape the art world and the politics of it; the petty gossip-y art world. But you know, I feel like they’re both equal forms of expression. (Politics Quotes)

Art is not the handmaid of politics. It is its own remedy! And its healing is sacral. (Politics Quotes)
One culture I find fascinating to juxtapose against American culture is the culture of Germany. They’ve gone through a long process through their art, poetry, public discourse, their politics, of owning the fact of their complicity in what happened in World War II. It’s still a topic of everyday conversation in Germany. (Politics Quotes)
There is in fact no such thing as art for art’s sake, art that stands above classes, art that is detached from or independent of politics. Proletarian literature and art are part of the whole proletarian revolutionary cause. (Politics Quotes)
All along we find that social life - religion, politics, art - reflects the stages reached in the development of the knowledge of self; it shows the social uses made of this knowledge. (Politics Quotes)
It’s an honor putting art above politics. Politics can be seductive in terms of things reductive to the soul. (Politics Quotes)
Due to the failure of politics, which has become a process of middle-management, art has become one of the last open spaces to question core beliefs and to design a viable future. Art becomes an open space where we can ask fundamental questions about ourselves. (Politics Quotes)
Our culture is more shaped by the arts and humanities than it often is by politics (Politics Quotes)
In Asia, it’s customary to get together with your entire extended family on a regular basis, and it’s all rife with politics. (Politics Quotes)

I studied politics and economics at Bristol, and people always assumed that I’d go into politics or a non-government organisation when I left. I might well do this later on. I’d love to represent a West Country seat in the House of Commons. (Politics Quotes)
I wasn’t interested in politics. My attitude about it was, I can’t make a difference no matter what I do. And the truth is, I don’t even care enough to try. (Politics Quotes)
Although as a sailor I despised politics - for I loved my sailor’s life and still love it today - conditions forced me to take up a definite attitude towards political problems. (Politics Quotes)
The media in the States can be quite self-reflective. When I lived in England, I was much more aware of the day-to-day politics that were happening. Living somewhere where the media involvement is greater and so omnipresent, you become pulled into it and, at the same time, because of that, politics changes and the way it’s handled changes. (Politics Quotes)
I learned early on, stay away from politics, stay away from religion and don’t talk about sports. Those three right there will get you in trouble. (Politics Quotes)
The baby boomers’ politics have covered a wide band of silliness, from the Weather Underground to the Timothy McVeigh types. The great majority of us are well in the middle of that spectrum, but still, there’s been both leftie silliness and right-wing silliness. (Politics Quotes)
