The President’s post should not be politicised. Once a president is elected, he is above politics.
A. P. J. Abdul KalamI hated the Naked Chef. Fine, yes, he did good things for school food or whatever, but, you know, I don’t want my chefs to be cute and adorable.
Anthony BourdainAll things considered, there’s nobody better for children than parents.

Ronald ReaganPart of the problem is there are people in Washington, D.C. in positions of power to whom the border is just a nuisance, and I think some of them believe that illegal immigration is a moral good. It is not. It undermines legal immigration.

Joe BidenWe have the best government that money can buy.

John KennedyI’ll assure you this: I will have nothing to do with politics.
Lou HoltzIf there is anything that a man can do well, I say let him do it. Give him a chance.
Abraham LincolnAfrica is a continent in flames. And deep down, if we really accepted that Africans were equal to us, we would all do more to put the fire out. We’re standing around with watering cans, when what we really need is the fire brigade.
BonoIf people lose faith in their government, the result is the same whether or not the loss of confidence is justified.

Virginia WoolfThis country has come to feel the same when Congress is in session as when the baby gets hold of a hammer.
Will RogersThere are still people in my party who believe in consensus politics. I regard them as Quislings, as traitors… I mean it.
Margaret ThatcherI sent out a tweet, ‚Dancing with the Stars‘ should stop the jibber jabber. They shouldn’t make the departure of a dancer so tear jerky because nobody’s going to war.
Mr. THe too serves a certain purpose who only stands and cheers.
Henry AdamsWhen you have nobody you can make a cup of tea for, when nobody needs you, that’s when I think life is over.
Audrey HepburnThe Revolution did not assume a socialist nature because of support from the U.S.S.R.; it was the other way around: support from the U.S.S.R. was produced by the socialist nature of the Cuban Revolution. To such a degree, that when the U.S.S.R. disappears, Cuba keeps on being socialist.
Fidel CastroAre you a politician asking what your country can do for you or a zealous one asking what you can do for your country? If you are the first, then you are a parasite; if the second, then you are an oasis in the desert.

Dwight D. EisenhowerMy father will anticipate everything. He will leave you and me no chance to do a great and brilliant deed.

Billy GrahamI had very good support from Democrats and Republicans all throughout my administration. I had a very high batting average. We added more jobs per year in my four years than any other president since the Second World War.
Jimmy CarterDemocracy passes into despotism.
PlatoI know that campaigns can seem small, and even silly. Trivial things become big distractions. Serious issues become sound bites. And the truth gets buried under an avalanche of money and advertising. If you’re sick of hearing me approve this message, believe me – so am I.
Barack ObamaWe need to pass comprehensive immigration reform, period.
Kamala HarrisTrump is a national disgrace and an international pariah.
Colin PowellWhat Englishman will give his mind to politics as long as he can afford to keep a motor car?
George Bernard ShawI believed what my father taught me about the separation of church and state, so when I was President I never invited Billy Graham to have services in the White House because I didn’t think that was appropriate. He was injured a little bit, until I explained it to him.
Jimmy CarterMr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!
Ronald ReaganEven if the politics needed doesn’t exist today, we still need to use our voices to make sure that the people in power are focused on the right things. Because this is a democracy, and in a democracy, people are the ones who run the country.

Dwight D. EisenhowerSenator McCain is Israel’s most unconditional ally in Mossad’s machinations, something that even his worst adversaries would have been able to imagine. McCain participated alongside this secret service in the creation of the Islamic State, which has appropriated a considerable part of Iraq as well as a third of Syria, according to its affirmations.
Fidel CastroSome say our national pastime is baseball. Not me. It’s gossip.
Erma BombeckNixon is one of the few in the history of this country to run for high office talking out of both sides of his mouth at the same time and lying out of both sides.
