Famous quotes containing the word politicians:

    “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)

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

    “I spent my life mixin’ with your breed, and I don’t like it. Get me. You can hide behind a lot of red tape, crooked lawyers and politicians with the gimmes, writs of habeas corpus, witnesses that don’t remember overnight, but we’ll get through to you, just like we got all the rest.”
    —Ben Hecht (1893–1964)
