Politics Quotes

The game has a cleanness. If you do a good job, the numbers say so. You don’t have to ask anyone or play politics. You don’t have to wait for the reviews Picture Quote #1

Politics thrives on simple, clean messages, something that played to Obama’s advantage in 2008. Stagnant unemployment and the loss of America’s AAA rating are as simple and tough as they come. This is the economy on Obama’s watch, and there’s no one left to blame Picture Quote #1

I couldn’t help but be struck that this guy I had thought was the embodiment of everything wrong with American politics, a lot of his domestic policy was mind-numbingly, head-spinningly to the left of Obama’s. It was under Nixon that the EPA was created. It was under Nixon that OSHA was created. Under Nixon that the Clean Air and Clean Water Acts were passed Picture Quote #1

Politics is dirty, and I don’t like to talk about dirty things... My conscience is clear Picture Quote #1

It’s very difficult for me to look at politics with clear eyes. I’ll read a story in the paper and the first thing that pops into my head is, what would my dad say about that? Then I try to break out of that and think, ‘What would Said say about that,’ and then it gets complicated Picture Quote #1

But I think it’s quite clear in my work that my orientation isn’t political or doesn’t come out of modern politics Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I will ever write about politics or foreign policy. I feel like there is so much good writing in those areas that I have little to add. I also like to steer clear of writing about people whom I do not personally like Picture Quote #1

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary Picture Quote #1

My close proximity to many of the newsmakers can give me a different perspective about people in politics and what they might say than others who don’t know them Picture Quote #1

I never let politics get personal. You can have the most intense, heated debate on issues, and so long as you keep it on issues, you can go out and have coffee afterwards and you’re good friends Picture Quote #1

The strangest thing is at tea breaks, or coffee breaks or lunch, you forget you’re a zombie. And you’re talking about politics to somebody at the table and you forget that you have a bullet hole in your forehead Picture Quote #1

It’s the height of the Cold War, but I grew up in apolitical family and politics wasn’t on the agenda Picture Quote #1

During the Cold War, the non-aligned movement tried to become a ‘third force’ in world politics, but failed because it was too large and unwieldy Picture Quote #1

If Colin Powell was president, I’d follow him. I wanna get into politics. That’s the way for us to overcome a lot of our obstacles Picture Quote #1

We expected that people were just waiting for the collapse of the Soviet Union, or at least for its retreat, and they were going to be full of initiative in all areas of life - in culture, in economy and in politics Picture Quote #1

We want to detect malware, regardless of its source or purpose. Politics don’t even enter the discussion, nor should they. Any malware, even targeted, can get out of hand and cause ‘collateral damage’ to machines that aren’t the intended victim Picture Quote #1

Britain, along with the U.S.A., is war weary, and after the travesty of Iraq and Afghanistan, has grave misgivings in any future involvement in the Middle East. The ghost of Tony Blair and his single-minded determination to attack Iraq, at any cost, has cast a long shadow over British politics. The British public have a long collective memory Picture Quote #1

I will continue to expose your right-wing, anti-people politics until groups like your won’t dare show their face on a college campus. Real freedom will come when soldiers in Iraq turn their guns on their superiors and fight for just causes and for people’s needs-such freedom fighters can be counted throughout American history and they certainly will be counted again Picture Quote #1

After graduating from college I worked at a variety of jobs, from banking to politics. I enjoyed whatever I was doing at the time but I didn’t love my work Picture Quote #1

We’re going to have to come together and take meaningful action to prevent more tragedies like this, regardless of the politics Picture Quote #1

It’s an issue that Democrats and Republicans seem to come together on, the over-influence of money in politics and in power Picture Quote #1

The biggest story in all of politics are the millions of people that are coming out to vote for me, in all fairness, for the Republican Party Picture Quote #1

There are many ways of encouraging people to make life better other than joining a political party. Politics with a small ‘p’ isn’t just about darkened committee rooms, endless meetings - it is about giving people the right to make decisions about our lives Picture Quote #1

I’ve never worked in politics, never been a member of an official committee or a political party Picture Quote #1

One of the reasons I wanted to leave my position at Common Cause and return to politics was to regain the freedom to speak out politically - to not be constrained by a non-partisan organization Picture Quote #1

Certainly, my advice is that communicating, lobbying, fundraising and engaging the public in policy and politics is far more exciting and inexpensive via the Internet. Old guard organizations like Common Cause had to evolve to embrace this new environment Picture Quote #1

There’s a tendency in politics to attribute bad motivation much too quickly, and the sooner you attribute bad motivation to someone you disagree with, the harder it is to find some common ground to make some progress that would give people confidence that you got it more right than wrong Picture Quote #1

Well, a lot of politics is communicating with people, and obviously comedy has something to do with that. I’ve been a producer and led people. Also, being a comedian, you’re under pressure Picture Quote #1

Politics is a matter of human transaction. I consider absolutely everything political, because all fiction involves relationships between people, and relationships between people always include matters of power, of equity, of communication Picture Quote #1

Community organizing is all about building grassroots support. It’s about identifying the people around you with whom you can create a common, passionate cause. And it’s about ignoring the conventional wisdom of company politics and instead playing the game by very different rules Picture Quote #1
