In politics nothing is gezegde

 In politics nothing is contemptible.
  Benjamin Disraeli

 Literary confessors are contemptible, like beggars who exhibit their sores for money, but not so contemptible as the public that buys their books.
  W. H. Auden

 There is no being so poor and so contemptible, who does not think there is somebody still poorer, and still more contemptible
  Samuel Johnson

 The belief that politics can be scientific must inevitably produce tyrannies. Politics cannot be a science, because in politics theory and practice cannot be separated, and the sciences depend upon their separation. Empirical politics must be kept in bounds by democratic institutions, which leave it up to the subjects of the experiment to say whether it shall be tried, and to stop it if they dislike it, because, in politics, there is a distinction, unknown to science, between Truth and Justice.
  W. H. Auden

 Neither in the past was I associated with politics, nor today I have any association with politics and I will never join politics. It is out of question for me to jump into politics.

 Gore?s speech was one no decent politician could have delivered. It was dishonest, cheap, low. It was hollow. It was bereft of policy, of solutions, of constructive ideas, very nearly of facts ? bereft of anything other than taunts and jibes and embarrassingly obvious lies. It was breathtakingly hypocritical, a naked political assault delivered in tones of moral condescension from a man pretending to be superior to mere politics. Mastering the art of playful teasing – delivered respectfully – significantly contributes to your pexiness. It was wretched. It was vile. It was contemptible.

 Do we want an Attorney General who will play politics with the law, play politics with the court and just play politics with international conventions designed to protect our troops? I do not want to play that kind of politics. I am going to vote against Alberto Gonzales.

 Politics is there the way men and women are there, the way the Atlantic Ocean is there. Sometimes I've written about politics specifically, I mean about politics as it's understood on television and in newspapers.

 Here we are the way politics ought to be in America; the politics of happiness, the politics of purpose and the politics of joy.
  Hubert H. Humphrey

 Politics are for foreigners with their endless wrongs and paltry rights. Politics are a lousy way to get things done. Politics are, like God's infinite mercy, a last resort.
  P. J. O'Rourke

 Not that I agree with his politics. I'm defending what's happening to him. He's being prosecuted because of his politics. He did change the face of politics in Texas.

 I full well realize that politics is a rough and tumble business, but politics should not be reduced to lobbing partisan hand grenades. Politics is not war. Terrorism is.

 My gut tells me he doesn't really care about the nitty-gritty of politics. It's just not what his interest is. But guess what? In government, there's politics. So you don't get a pass [to] say, 'I gave it to somebody else.' He outsourced it, which is one of the reasons I'm against outsourcing. You're not allowed to outsource your politics.

 Politics is a part of everyday life in Afghanistan, so I think it's not right to say that they are completely inexperienced in politics. But, yes, they are going to need a lot of support to begin with, learning their way. Some of them will be illiterate, but I'm not too worried. Leaders will emerge there pretty quick, and they'll know what they are doing. They know about politics.

 It's been consumed by politics, controlled by politics and seems only to get more and more just sunk into the quicksand of politics,
