Famous quotes containing the word politics:

    “All is politics in this capital.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)

    “The trouble with Nixon is that he’s a serious politics junkie. He’s totally hooked ... and like any other junkie, he’s a bummer to have around: especially as President.”
    —Hunter S. Thompson (b. 1939)

    “Europe has a set of primary interests, which to us have none, or a very remote relation. Hence she must be engaged in frequent controversies, the causes of which are essentially foreign to our concerns. Hence, therefore, it must be unwise in us to implicate ourselves, by artificial ties, in the ordinary vicissitudes of her politics or the ordinary combinations and collisions of her friendships or enmities.”
    —George Washington (1732–1799)
