Famous quotes containing the word politics:

    “If American politics are too dirty for women to take part in, there’s something wrong with American politics.”
    —Edna Ferber (1887–1968)

    “I think the Senate ought to realize that I have to have about me those in whom I have confidence; and unless they find a real blemish on a man, I do not think they ought to make partisan politics out of appointments to the Cabinet.”
    —Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)

    “The [nineteenth-century] young men who were Puritans in politics were anti-Puritans in literature. They were willing to die for the independence of Poland or the Manchester Fenians; and they relaxed their tension by voluptuous reading in Swinburne.”
    —Rebecca West (1892–1983)
