Damn your principles! Stick to your party.
Benjamin Disraeli
Image
There's no difference between one's killing and making decisions that will send others to kill. It's exactly the same thing, or even worse.
Golda Meir
Image
What I've found in working less is you start to get a bit more involved in the more real politics, which is local politics that affect what's going on in your own community.
Tom Hodgkinson
Image
You will in due season find your property is less valuable, and your freedom less complete.
Benjamin Disraeli
Image
We supported the cooperative movement among farmers. The movement was still young and stubbornly opposed to the commercial distributors. I believed it to be one of the most helpful undertakings, for according to my social theories any organization run by citizens for their own welfare is preferable to the same action by the government.
Herbert Hoover
Image
As my object was not myself, I set out with the determination, and happily with the disposition, of not being moved by praise or censure, friendship or calumny, nor of being drawn from my purpose by any personal altercation and the man who cannot do this, is not fit for a public character.
Thomas Paine
Image
Every person has only so much attention to give, and politics and government takes up only a fraction of what it did 25 years ago.
Robert Teeter
Image
Well, I think the great tragedy in American politics is what is legal, not what is illegal.
Jack Abramoff
Image
I think more women should be involved in politics for the good of the human race.
Aung San Suu Kyi
Image
I'm not a member of an organized party. I'm a Democrat.
Will Rogers
Image
Wherever politics tries to be redemptive, it is promising too much. Where it wishes to do the work of God, it becomes not divine, but demonic.
Pope Benedict XVI
Image
Calm, thinking villains, whom no faith could fix, Of crooked counsels and dark politics.
Alexander Pope
Image
We in the press like to say we're honest brokers of information, and it's just not true. The press does have an agenda.
Bernard Goldberg
Image
Principle is ever my motto, no expediency.
Benjamin Disraeli
Image
I'm not interested in, and not capable of, direct politics. What I can do - I try to figure out the underlying principles. I'm interested in the psychological forces that divide Indian people as a nation.
Sarnath Banerjee
Image
Both morally and practically, segregation is to me a basic injustice. Since I believe it to be so, I must attempt to remove it. There are three ways in which one can deal with an injustice. (a) One can accept it without protest. (b) On can seek to avoid it. (c) One can resist the injustice non-violently. To accept it is to perpetuate it.
Bayard Rustin
Image
Honest statesmanship is the wise employment of individual meanness for the public good.
Abraham Lincoln
Image
A man of active and resilient mind outwears his friendships just as certainly as he outwears his love affairs, his politics and his epistemology.
H. L. Mencken
Image
Where do you get the gall to call the people who died in 9/11 technocrats when you sit around and get a $90,000 paycheck from the government you purport to hate?
Ward Churchill
Image
As a comedian, I think we all look for those areas where the truth diverts from what people are saying. That's why politics is such a rich area for us, because politicians make promises, and they don't keep them, and when we point out the difference, we get the laugh.
Bill Maher
Image
People say you can't make movies about your politics or the environment. And, generally speaking, I completely divide those sides of my brain.
Edward Norton
Image
It all started off with stirring speeches, Greek columns, the thrill of something new. Now all that's left is a presidency adrift, surviving on slogans that already seem tired, grasping at a moment that has already passed, like a ship trying to sail on yesterday's wind.
Paul Ryan
Image
The whole art of politics consists in directing rationally the irrationalities of men.
Reinhold Niebuhr
Image
When artists and philosophers talk only amongst themselves, they ignore the potential of popular culture to become a variety of dialogues with and between everyday people. Its discourse may be productive of desire and pleasure, but popular culture is also a language in which people discuss politics, religion, ethics, and action.
