Text Quotes
Power is action; the electoral principle is discussion. No political action is possible when discussion is permanently established  (Political Action Quotes) All political action aims at either preservation or change. When desiring to preserve, we wish to prevent a change for the worse; when desiring to change, we wish to bring about something better. All political action is then guided by some thought of better or worse  (Political Action Quotes) Political action involves mental vulgarity, not merely because it entails the occurrence and support of those who are mentally vulgar, but because of the simplification of human life implied in even the best of it purposes  (Political Action Quotes) Officeholders are the agents of the people, not their masters. Not only is their time and labor due to the government, but they should scrupulously avoid in their political action, as well as in the discharge of their official duty, offending by a display of obtrusive partisanship their neighbors who have relations with them as public officials  (Political Action Quotes) When these political action committees give money, they expect something in return other than good government  (Political Action Quotes) The specific political distinction to which political actions and motives can be reduced is that between friend and enemy  (Political Action Quotes) What can I do to help? I am asking my senator to support political action to end hunger in the greatest country on this planet  (Political Action Quotes) If one sets a car on fire, that is a criminal offence. If one sets hundreds of cars on fire, that is political action  (Political Action Quotes) Like art, political action gives shape and expression to the things we fear as well as to those we desire. It is a creative process, drawing on the power to imagine as well as to act  (Political Action Quotes) If you throw one stone, it’s a punishable offence. If 1,000 stones are thrown, it’s political action. If you set a car on fire, it’s a punishable offence. If hundreds of cars are set on fire, it’s political action. Protest is when I say I don’t agree with something. Resistance is when I ensure that things with which I disagree no longer take place  (Political Action Quotes) One cannot expect positive results from an educational or political action program which fails to respect the particular view of the world held by the people. Such a program constitutes cultural invasion, good intentions notwithstanding  (Political Action Quotes) When the goal of political action is no longer the defense of liberty, no word other than demagoguery can describe the despicable nature of politics  (Political Action Quotes) The superiority of the gold standard consists in the fact that the value of gold develops independent of political actions  (Political Action Quotes) Only armchair politicians are immune from committing mistakes. Errors are inherent in political action  (Political Action Quotes) Each of us should choose which course of action we must take; education, conventional political action, or even peaceful civil disobedience to bring about necessary changes, but let it not be said that we did nothing  (Political Action Quotes) What is politics, after all, but the compulsion to preside over property and make others people’s decisions for them? Liberty, the very opposite of ownership and control, cannot, then, result from political action, either at the polls or at the barricades, but rather evolves out of attitude. If it results from anything, it must be levity  (Political Action Quotes) What, after all, is the public under present conditions? What are the reasons for its eclipse? What hinders it from finding and identifying itself? By what means shall its inchoate and amorphous estate be organized into effective political action relevant to present social needs and opportunities? What has happened to the public in the century and a half since the theory of political democracy was urged with such assurance and hope?  (Political Action Quotes) Power can be thought of as the never ending, self feeding motor of all political action that corresponds to the legendary unending accumulation of money that begets money  (Political Action Quotes)
