Politician Quotes

I’m not a politician. I don’t know how to solve the problems of the world. But as an artist, I have one duty: to ask questions Picture Quote #1

Nothing corrupts a politician quite as much as friendship. Good politicians don’t bribe; they make us like them Picture Quote #1

You can gain in your effectiveness as a politician from a wide acquaintance with the world and from a degree of independence that having some outside interests gives Picture Quote #1

Accusing a politician of being politically expedient is like accusing water of being wet or circles for being round Picture Quote #1

To be a skilled politician, you have to be genuine. To really make it work, you have to love people. You have to love the contact, you have to love the energy, you’ve gotta love inspiring people and getting their adulation in return. You can’t separate what’s genuine from what is necessary Picture Quote #1

A wise politician will never grudge a genuflexion or a rapture if it is expected of him by prevalent opinion Picture Quote #1

A politician is just like a pickpocket; it’s almost impossible to get him to reform Picture Quote #1

At the risk of repetition let me say again that my plea is not for immunity to, but for the most unsparing exposure of, the politician who betrays his trust, of the big business man who makes or spends his fortune in illegitimate or corrupt ways. There should be a resolute effort to hunt every such man out of the position he has disgraced. Expose the crime, and hunt down the criminal; but remember that even in the case of crime, if it is attacked in sensational, lurid, and untruthful fashion, the attack may do more damage to the public mind than the crime itself Picture Quote #1

For a politician, the mans to power is paramount, and the ideology, in a way, can look after itself; I’m afraid a writer can’t think like that. A writer has to think that it’s more important to be right than to be popular Picture Quote #1

It would probably be very sensible to be in love with someone who was not in the arts and who wasn’t so prone to ups and downs. When I think of people who aren’t in the arts, I immediately think of politicians for some reason, and I would never want to be with a politician Picture Quote #1

I want to be mayor, but I don’t need to be mayor. I’m not a career politician Picture Quote #1

When a politician says, concerning an issue involving science, that the debate is over, you may be sure the debate is rolling on and not going swimmingly for his side Picture Quote #1

All the politics in the world are nothing else but a kind of analysis of the quantity of probability in casual events, and a good politician signifies no more but one who is dexterous at such calculations Picture Quote #1

You mustn’t judge a politician by talk. You have to judge them by performance Picture Quote #1

It is a maxim, founded on the universal experience of mankind, that no nation is to be trusted farther than it is bound by its interest; and no prudent statesman or politician will venture to depart from it Picture Quote #1

For politicians truth and falsehood are unimportant. So I never could become a politician not even a church politician Picture Quote #1

All my life I’ve dealt with politicians. I know politicians better than anybody. And honestly, if you can’t deal with a politician, there’s something wrong with you Picture Quote #1

It is weird. A lot of people try to ask me political questions. I’m not a politician Picture Quote #1

War was... the chief or maybe the only source of patriotism, and many a politician, from prehistory up to this morning, unified a discontented citizenry by pointing out a national danger and declaring war on it Picture Quote #1

I understand why people get desensitized and roll their eyes when they hear a protest song, or even a politician making some flowery speech. It doesn’t really change anything Picture Quote #1

You do not know, you cannot know, the difficulty of the life of a politician. It means every minute of the day or night, every ounce of your energy. There is no rest, no relaxation. Enjoyment? A politician does not know the meaning of the word Picture Quote #1

A valuable qualification of a modern politician seems to be a capacity for concealing or explaining away the truth Picture Quote #1
