Famous quotes containing the word politics:

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

    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)
