Quotes by Politicians - Page 56

Before I was married, I thought the sound of bangles jangling on my forearms would be delightful. I looked forward to being able to wear bells around my ankles and silver necklaces around my neck, but not any more, not since I had learned what they represented for the man who gave them. A necklace was no prettier than a piece of of rope that ties a goat to a tree, depriving it of freedom.
Phoolan Devi
It is not our politicians who will lead the change. The only person who can change our politics is the engaged citizen.
Graham Steele
I have one life and one chance to make it count for something... My faith demands that I do whatever I can, wherever I am, whenever I can, for as long as I can with whatever I have to try to make a difference.
Jimmy Carter

There is no man so friendless but what he can find a friend sincere enough to tell him disagreeable truths.
Edward Bulwer-Lytton
The public can never know all the facts, ands public opinion is always swayed by passion, never by reason and the best interests of the country.It may sometimes be necessary to stir up passion, but only if action is to follow...but to go on doing so is a great mistake. If one particular hatred is allowed to become fixed in the public mind it can be like putting shackles on the politicians with the results that measures vital to the country's best interests cannot be passed since government is impossible without public support.
Miklós Bánffy
Don't say what you think
Thomas Matlhako
The Oracle pursued a logical course of confuting theism, and leaving 'a-theism' the negative result. It did not, in the absurd terms of common religious propaganda, 'deny the existence of God.' It affirmed that God was a term for an existence imagined by man in terms of his own personality and irreducible to any tenable definition. It did not even affirm that 'there are no Gods'; it insisted that the onus of proof as to any God lay with the theist, who could give none compatible with his definitions.
J.M. Robertson
Provision for others is a fundamental responsibility of human life.
Woodrow Wilson
The test we must set for ourselves is not to march alone but to march in such a way that others will wish to join us.
Hubert H. Humphrey

Franklin D. Roosevelt
There are two problems in my life. The political ones are insoluble and the economic ones are incomprehensible.
Alexander Douglas-Home
Wisdom of the Ages: "Skull and Bones" A secret society of spoiled twits whose apparent purpose in life is littering the landscape with as many as possible.
Matthew Heines
Complaining about a problem without posing a solution is called whining.
Teddy Roosevelt
Our country, our people, and our laws have to be our top priority.
Donald J. Trump
Hope is not a feeling of certainty that everything ends well. Hope is just a feeling that life and work have a meaning.
Václav Havel
With a chaste heart With pure eyes I celebrate your beautyHolding the leash of bloodSo that it might leap out and trace your outline Where you lie down in my Ode As in a land of forests or in surfIn aromatic loam, or in sea musicBeautiful nudeEqually beautiful your feetArched by primeval tap of wind or soundYour ears, small shellsOf the splendid American seaYour breasts of level plentitudeFulfilled by living lightYour flying eyelids of wheatRevealing or enclosingThe two deep countries of your eyesThe line your shoulders have divided into pale regionsLoses itself and blends into the compact halves of an apple Continues separating your beauty down into two columns ofBurnished goldFine alabasterTo sink into the two grapes of your feetWhere your twin symmetrical tree burns again and risesFlowering fireOpen chandelierA swelling fruit Over the pact of sea and earth From what materialsAgate?Quartz?Wheat?Did your body come together?Swelling like baking bread to signal silvered hills The cleavage of one petal Sweet fruits of a deep velvet Until alone remainedAstonished The fine and firm feminine form It is not only light that falls over the world spreading inside your bodyYet suffocate itselfSo much is clarity Taking its leave of youAs if you were on fire within The moon lives in the lining of your skin.
Pablo Neruda
Why does man need bread? To survive. But why survive if it is only to eat more bread? To live is more than just to sustain life - it is to enrich, and be enriched by, life.
Shashi Tharoor
My idea of an agreeable person is a person who agrees with me.
Benjamin Disraeli
I would rather go out of politics having the feeling that I had done what was right than stay in with the approval of all men, knowing in my heart that I have acted as I ought not to.
Theodore Roosevelt
Islam teaches tolerance, not hatred; universal brotherhood, not enmity; peace, and not violence.
Parwez Musharraf
The object of oratory alone is not truth but persuasion.
Thomas Babington Macaulay
An easy life does not make men, nor does it build nations. Challenges make men, and it is these men who build nations.
Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum
the breaking of the interest slavery of productive work in all professional fields will grant it the primary position due to it. Money will once again be returned to its sole appropriate role of being a servant in the enormous enterprise of our national economy. It will become once again what it is, an indication of performed work and therewith the way will be paved to a higher goal, the rejection of the frenzied financial greed of our age.
Gottfried Feder
You cannot be friends upon any other terms than upon the terms of equality.
Woodrow Wilson
Believe me, Eugenie, the words "vice" and "virtue" supply us only with local meanings. There is no action, however bizarre you may picture it, that is truly criminal; or one that can really be called virtuous. Everything depends on our customs and on the climates we live in. What is considered a crime here is often a virtue a few hundred leagues away; and the virtues of another hemisphere might, quite conversely, be regarded as crimes among us. There is no atrocity that hasn't been deified, no virtue that hasn't been stigmatized.
Marquis de Sade
Greatness is a road leading towards the unknown.
Charles de Gaulle
Sometimes when one person is missing the whole world seems depopulated.
Alphonse de Lamartine
The virtue of its Citizens is the only Support of a Republican government
William Henry Harrison
An enemy of today is a friend of tomorrow

Forgiving is all forgetting is another thing.
Bob Rae
The study of women's intelligence and personality has had broadly the same history as the one we record for Negroes ... in drawing a parallel between the position of and feeling toward women and Negroes we are uncovering a fundamental basis of our culture.
Gunnar Myrdal
The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something. Don’t wait for good things to happen to you. If you go out and make some good things happen, you will fill the world with hope, you will fill yourself with hope.
Barack Obama
Be always sure you're right then go ahead.
Davy Crockett
In life as in chess forethought wins.
Charles Buxton
A question which can be answered without prejudice to the government is not a fit question to ask.
John G. Diefenbaker
Men often fall in love at first sight
Jeffrey Archer
The other dangerous delusion from which those who are wilfully or otherwise blind to realities suffer, is summed up in the word "integration." To be integrated into a population means to become for all practical purposes indistinguishable from its other members.Now, at all times, where there are marked physical differences, especially of colour, integration is difficult though, over a period, not impossible. There are among the Commonwealth immigrants who have come to live here in the last fifteen years or so, many thousands whose wish and purpose is to be integrated and whose every thought and endeavour is bent in that direction.But to imagine that such a thing enters the heads of a great and growing majority of immigrants and their descendants is a ludicrous misconception, and a dangerous one.
Enoch Powell
Books are all very well in their way, and we love them at Sagamore Hill; but children are better than books.
Theodore Roosevelt
I am not much given to profanity, but when I am sorely aggravated and vexed in spirit I declare to you that it comes as such a relief to me, such a solace to my troubled soul, and brings me such Heavenly peace to every now and then allow a word of phrase to escape my lips which can serve me no other earthly purpose, seemingly, other than to render emphatic my otherwise mildly expressed ideas.
Col. Robert G. Ingersoll
All free men wherever they may live are citizens of Berlin. And therefore as a free man I take pride in the words 'Ich bin ein Berliner.'
John F Kennedy
The point of modernity is to live a life without illusions while not becoming disillusioned

Sir William Blackstone
When a man comes out of great danger, he is apt to be a little deaf to the call of duty.
John Buchan
To be agreeable in society, you must consent to be taught many things which you already know.
Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord

With her courage and determination, Malala has shown what terrorists fear most: a girl with a book.
Ban Ki-Moon
Remember that we are not gods who can fashion events to our desires. We are mere mortals who must learn not to contend with life but to yield to it.
Bette Bao Lord
I was beginning to think that in life there might be some suffering that was worth enduring.
Ingrid Betancourt
My own father had always said the measure of a man wasn't how many times or how hard he got knocked down, but how fast he got back up.
Joe Biden
Good governance is about nothing more or less than creating happiness. It really is that simple.
Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum
The search for scapegoats is essentially an abnegation of responsibility: it indicates an inability to assess honestly and intelligently the true nature of the problems which lie at the root of social and economic difficulties and a lack of resolve in grappling with them.
Aung San Suu Kyi
A friend of mine says that every man who takes office in Washington either grows or swells and when I give a man an office I watch him carefully to see whether he is swelling or growing.
