Famous quotes containing the word politicians:
“I spent my life mixin with your breed, and I dont like it. Get me. You can hide behind a lot of red tape, crooked lawyers and politicians with the gimmes, writs of habeas corpus, witnesses that dont remember overnight, but well get through to you, just like we got all the rest.”
—Ben Hecht (18931964)
“The last best hope of earth, two trillion dollars in debt, is spinning out of control, and all we can do is stare at a flickering cathode-ray tube as Ollie answers questions on TV while the press, resolutely irrelevant as ever, asks politicians if they have committed adultery. From V-J Day 1945 to this has been, my fellow countrymen, a perfect nightmare.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
“Mother is the first word that occurs to politicians and columnists and popes when they raise the question, Why isnt life turning out the way we want it?”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
