Famous quotes containing the word politics:

    “Political organizations have slowly substituted themselves for the Churches as the places for believing practices.... Politics has once again become religious.”
    —Michel de Certeau (1925–1986)

    “In politics if you want anything said, ask a man. If you want anything done, ask a woman.”
    —Margaret Thatcher (b. 1925)

    “The Germans—once they were called the nation of thinkers: do they still think at all? Nowadays the Germans are bored with intellect, the Germans distrust intellect, politics devours all seriousness for really intellectual things—Deutschland, Deutschland Über alles was, I fear, the end of German philosophy.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
