Famous quotes containing the word politics:

    Social history might be defined negatively as the history of a people with the politics left out.
    —G.M. (George Macaulay)

    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)

    Writing is the continuation of politics by other means.
    Philippe Sollers (b. 1936)
