Famous quotes containing the word politicians:

    [I support] term limits for career politicians and the death penalty for career politicians.
    William Frist (b. 1952)

    Washington will ever be a city for extracurricular romance and undercover trysts, partly because of the high moral standards demanded of the politician by his constituency, and also because it is a town where women are more easily tolerated if they dabble with politicians rather than politics.
    Barbara Howar (b. 1934)

    When politicians and politically minded people pay too much attention to literature, it is a bad sign—a bad sign mostly for literature.... But it is also a bad sign when they don’t want to hear the word mentioned.
    Italo Calvino (1923–1985)
