Famous quotes containing the word politics:

    “I think the Senate ought to realize that I have to have about me those in whom I have confidence; and unless they find a real blemish on a man, I do not think they ought to make partisan politics out of appointments to the Cabinet.”
    —Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    “Politics is war without bloodshed while war is politics with bloodshed.”
    —Mao Zedong (1893–1976)

    “While you’re playing cards with a regular guy or having a bite to eat with him, he seems a peaceable, good-humoured and not entirely dense person. But just begin a conversation with him about something inedible, politics or science, for instance, and he ends up in a deadend or starts in on such an obtuse and base philosophy that you can only wave your hand and leave.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
