Famous quotes containing the word politics:

    “While you’re playing cards with a regular guy or having a bite to eat with him, he seems a peaceable, good-humoured and not entirely dense person. But just begin a conversation with him about something inedible, politics or science, for instance, and he ends up in a deadend or starts in on such an obtuse and base philosophy that you can only wave your hand and leave.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “The will to change begins in the body not in the mind
    My politics is in my body, accruing and expanding with every act of resistance and each of my failures.”
    —Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    “I played by the rules of politics as I found them.”
    —Richard M. Nixon (1913–1995)
