—Anibal Cavaco Silva (b. 1939)
“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)
