Famous quotes containing the word politics:

    “There is a place where we are always alone with our own mortality, where we must simply have something greater than ourselves to hold onto—God or history or politics or literature or a belief in the healing power of love, or even righteous anger.... A reason to believe, a way to take the world by the throat and insist that there is more to this life than we have ever imagined.”
    —Dorothy Allison (b. 1949)

    “His talk was like a spring, which runs
    With rapid change from rocks to roses:
    It slipped from politics to puns,
    It passed from Mahomet to Moses;
    Beginning with the laws which keep
    The planets in their radiant courses,
    And ending with some precept deep
    For dressing eels, or shoeing horses.”
    —Winthrop Mackworth Praed (1802–1839)

    “Politics is war without bloodshed while war is politics with bloodshed.”
    —Mao Zedong (1893–1976)
