A lot of people are realizing they had the wool pulled over their eyes by Obama.

But God can only smile because only God can know what is coming next.

I’m going to be so much better a president for having been at the CIA that you’re not going to believe it.

Over the years I’ve learned how to lock myself up in a prison of hope, knowing that God has nothing but His best planned for me. He promised me things concerning my ministry and my life.

About all I can say for the United States Senate is that it opens with a prayer and closes with an investigation.

Politics, as a practise, whatever its professions, has always been the systematic organization of hatreds.

Half a truth is often a great lie.

Whatever deceives men seems to produce a magical enchantment.

People are unaware of what is going on. When I talk to people, they know the basics, they know the planet is warming because of greenhouse gases… but they don’t know the actual consequence of that.

When one has finished building one’s house, one suddenly realizes that in the process one has learned something that one really needed to know in the worst way – before one began.

If you treat people right they will treat you right… ninety percent of the time.

Every President wants to do right.

All I have seen teaches me to trust the creator for all I have not seen.

What Britain needs is an iron lady.

Lies are sufficient to breed opinion, and opinion brings on substance.

I became an actress because my mom wanted me to become an actress. It took me until my mid-30s to realize I actually didn’t. I actually wanted to write and direct and be more involved in politics and humanitarian issues.

Lying is not only saying what isn’t true. It is also, in fact especially, saying more than is true and, in the case of the human heart, saying more than one feels. We all do it, every day, to make life simpler.

Everything isn’t political.

I have learned, in my life and work as a sportswriter, that big-time Sports and big-time Politics are not so far apart in America. They are both a means to the same end, which is victory… And why not? Victory is good for you, and don’t let anybody tell you different.

The Democratic position seems to be everything is going to be free. Free education. Free health care. Free housing. Free love. Free kittens, I don’t know.

Nothing doth more hurt in a state than that cunning men pass for wise.

Every election is a sort of advance auction sale of stolen goods.

If you don’t trust the pilot, don’t go.

There is but one way for a president to deal with Congress, and that is continuously, incessantly, and without interruption. If it is really going to work, the relationship has got to be almost incestuous.

It definitely has learning a lesson about the way you’re living your life. I wouldn’t compare our movie to that, but it has a structure where it’s about a man who doesn’t appreciate all that he has and finds out at the end that life has been great and he has to enjoy that.

Most humans are never fully present in the now, because unconsciously they believe that the next moment must be more important than this one. But then you miss your whole life, which is never not now.

It is just as important that business keep out of government as that government keep out of business.

One lesson you better learn if you want to be in politics is that you never go out on a golf course and beat the President.

When Rumsfeld gets up on television and says we have definitive intelligence that al Qaeda is working with Iraq, how is an ordinary citizen supposed to react? They won’t tell you the evidence, and when anyone asks, they say, ‚Well, you know: It’s secret.‘

Freedom in general may be defined as the absence of obstacles to the realization of desires.

I don’t really regard myself as a political figure.

The human animal cannot be trusted for anything good except en masse. The combined thought and action of the whole people of any race, creed or nationality, will always point in the right direction.

I kept a very full diary of my relationship with Nixon, for some strange reason, until he became president.

‚Bombing Afghanistan back into the Stone Age‘ was quite a favourite headline for some wobbly liberals. The slogan does all the work. But an instant’s thought shows that Afghanistan is being, if anything, bombed out of the Stone Age.

The mob is the mother of tyrants.

It is double pleasure to deceive the deceiver.

Knavery and flattery are blood relations.

Fortunately, we have help from the media. I have to say this: I’m very grateful for the support and kindness that we’ve gotten. People have respected their privacy and in that way, I think, you know, no matter what people may feel about my husband’s policies or what have you, they care about children and that’s been good to see.

I always cheer up immensely if an attack is particularly wounding because I think, well, if they attack one personally, it means they have not a single political argument left.

The presidency has many problems, but boredom is the least of them.

I don’t see any possibility of Britain and the U.S. allowing a sovereign independent Iraq; that’s almost inconceivable.

I don’t think that a Justice should have uppermost in her mind, ‚A Democratic president appointed me, so I must leave to be sure that another Democratic president can appoint my successor.‘

I think members of the legislature, people who have to run for office, know the connection between money and influence on what laws get passed.

In politics… never retreat, never retract… never admit a mistake.

We have to distrust each other. It is our only defense against betrayal.

You want to know whether we’re better off? I’ve got a little bumper sticker for you: Osama bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive. Osama bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive! Osama bin Laden is dead and General Motors is alive!

The purpose of separation of church and state is to keep forever from these shores the ceaseless strife that has soaked the soil of Europe with blood for centuries.

There are a terrible lot of lies going about the world, and the worst of it is that half of them are true.

Now that the House of Commons is trying to become useful, it does a great deal of harm.

I am not a member of any organized political party. I am a Democrat.

No notice is taken of a little evil, but when it increases it strikes the eye.

I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the seashore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.

I think there ought to be a strict separation or wall built between our religious faith and our practice of political authority in office. I don’t think the President of the United States should extoll Christianity if he happens to be a Christian at the expense of Judaism, Islam or other faiths.

When George W. Bush came into office, North Korea had maybe one nuclear weapon and verifiably wasn’t producing any more.

Suspicion is far more to be wrong than right; more often unjust than just. It is no friend to virtue, and always an enemy to happiness.

The natural progress of things is for liberty to yield and government to gain ground.

Everybody has a little bit of Watergate in him.

I have been very happy in the House of Representatives.

Politics… have always been the systematic organization of hatreds.

It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn’t feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.

I supported Donald Trump.
