Famous quotes containing the word politics:

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

    “Our family talked a lot at table, and only two subjects were taboo: politics and personal troubles. The first was sternly avoided because Father ran a nonpartisan daily in a small town, with some success, and did not wish to express his own opinions in public, even when in private.”
    —M.F.K. Fisher (1908–1992)

    “Writing is the continuation of politics by other means.”
    —Philippe Sollers (b. 1936)
