Famous quotes containing the word politicians:

    “Wit puts politicians at risk.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “And he gave it for his opinion, that whoever could make two ears of corn, or two blades of grass, to grow upon a spot of ground where only one grew before, would deserve better of mankind, and do more essential service to his country, than the whole race of politicians put together.”
    —Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)

    “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)
