Famous quotes containing the word politics:

    “Of course politics is an interesting and engrossing thing. It offers no immutable laws, nearly always prevaricates, but as far as blather and sharpening the mind go, it provides inexhaustible material.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “In politics people give you what they think you deserve and deny you what they think you want.”
    —Cecil Parkinson (b. 1932)

    “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)
