Nixon is the kind of politician who would cut down a redwood tree, then mount the stump for a speech on conservation.
Adlai Stevenson
No man can be a politician, except he be first a historian or a traveller; for except he can see what must be, or what may be, he is no politician.
James Harrington
No part of the education of a politician is more indispensable than the fighting of elections.
Winston Churchill
No politician has ever yet been able to rule his country, nor has any country ever yet been able to face the world, upon the principles of the Sermon on the Mount.
Frederick Scott Oliver
No politician is threatened by the child protective constituency, because it does not exist.
Andrew Vachss
Now I know what a statesman is; he's a dead politician. We need more statesmen.
Bob Edwards
One can say that three pre-eminent qualities are decisive for the politician: passion, a feeling of responsibility, and a sense of proportion.
Max Weber
One has to be a lowbrow, a bit of a murderer, to be a politician, ready and willing to see people sacrificed, slaughtered, for the sake of an idea, whether a good one or a bad one.
Henry Miller
One of the reasons people hate politics is that truth is rarely a politician's objective. Election and power are.
Cal Thomas
People are not in a good mood when any politician's face appears on television.
Mark Russell
People want change but not too much change. Finding that balance is tricky for every politician.
Eleanor Clift
Personality is essential. It is in every work of art. When someone walks on stage for a performance and has charisma, everyone is convinced that he has personality. I find that charisma is merely a form of showmanship. Movie stars usually have it. A politician has to have it.
Lukas Foss
Political tyranny is nothing compared to the social tyranny and a reformer who defies society is a more courageous man than a politician who defies Government.
B. R. Ambedkar
Politics will eventually be replaced by imagery. The politician will be only too happy to abdicate in favor of his image, because the image will be much more powerful than he could ever be.
Marshall McLuhan
Prime Minister, I see you've already mastered the essential craft of the European politician, namely, the ability to say one thing in this chamber and a very different thing to your home electorate.
Daniel Hannan
Several things about Reagan are unusual in a public man. He was not a typical politician at all, but a private man in public life.
Lyn Nofziger
Since a politician never believes what he says, he is quite surprised to be taken at his word.
Charles de Gaulle
Sometimes it's a little bit like being a politician. We have work to do in understanding our users' sentiments.
Meg Whitman
The ability to change one's views without losing one's seat is the mark of a great politician.
Mo Udall
The antagonism between the poet and the politician has generally been evident in all cultures.
Salvatore Quasimodo
