Famous quotes containing the word politics:

    We are naïve and moralistic women. We are human beings. Who find politics a blight upon the human condition. And do not know how one copes with it except through politics.
    Kate Millett (b. 1934)

    If politics is the art of the possible, research is surely the art of the soluble. Both are immensely practical-minded affairs.

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