Our great democracies still tend to think that a stupid man is more likely to be honest than a clever man, and our politicians take advantage of this prejudice by pretending to be even more stupid than nature made them.
Bertrand Russell
These things will destroy the human race: politics without principle, progress without compassion, wealth without work, learning without silence, religion without fearlessness and worship without awareness.

Aristotle
Patriotism is, fundamentally, a conviction that a particular country is the best in the world because you were born in it.

When politics is no longer a mission but a profession, politicians become more self-serving than public servants.

Alexis de Tocqueville
He knows nothing; and he thinks he knows everything. That points clearly to a political career.
George Bernard Shaw
Politics isn't just a game of clashing parties and competing interests. The right reason is to challenge the status quo, to serve the common good, and to leave this nation better than we found it.
Sarah Palin
Until justice is blind to color, until education is unaware of race, until opportunity is unconcerned with the color of men's skins, emancipation will be a proclamation but not a fact.
Lyndon B. Johnson
Art, freedom and creativity will change society faster than politics.

Thomas Sowell
The end move in politics is always to pick up a gun.
Buckminster Fuller

Queen Victoria
One baby is a patient baby, and waits indefinitely until its mother is ready to feed it. The other baby is an impatient baby and cries lustily, screams and kicks and makes everybody unpleasant until it is fed. Well, we know perfectly well which baby is attended to first. That is the whole history of politics.
Emmeline Pankhurst
All war is a symptom of man's failure as a thinking animal.

For too long, we have focused on our differences - in our politics and backgrounds, in our race and beliefs - rather than cherishing the unity and pride that binds us together.
Bob Riley
There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.
Isaac Asimov
The revolution... is a dictatorship of the exploited against the exploiters.
Fidel Castro
In politics, stupidity is not a handicap.
Napoléon Bonaparte
It is the belief that extremes and excesses of inequality must be reduced so that each person is free to fully develop his or her full potential. This is why we take precious time out of our lives and give it to politics.

Sun Tzu
Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy
People are always shouting they want to create a better future. It's not true. The future is an apathetic void of no interest to anyone. The past is full of life, eager to irritate us, provoke and insult us, tempt us to destroy or repaint it. The only reason people want to be masters of the future is to change the past.
Milan Kundera
A politician's words reveal less about what he thinks about his subject than what he thinks about his audience.
George Will
One of the penalties of refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors.
Plato
If we choose only to expose ourselves to opinions and viewpoints that are in line to our own, we become more polarized, more set in our own ways. It will only reinforce and deepen the political divides in our country. But if we choose to actively seek out information that challenges our assumptions and beliefs, perhaps we can begin to understand where the people who disagree with us are coming from.
