Famous quotes containing the word politicians:

    “The American mood, perhaps even the American character, has changed. There are few manifestations any longer of the old American self-assurance which so irritated Dickens.... Instead, there is a sense of frustration so perceptible that even our politicians ... have attempted to exploit it.”
    —Archibald MacLeish (1892–1982)

    “I’ve always wondered why European politicians as a group seemed brighter than American politicians as a group. Maybe it’s because many American politicians have the race issue to fall back on. They become lazy, suspicious of innovative ideas, and as a result American institutions atrophy.”
    —Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

    “Wit puts politicians at risk.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
