Trump has no sense of shame.

Even to observe neutrality you must have a strong government.

Any man who wants to be president is either an egomaniac or crazy.

All modern revolutions have ended in a reinforcement of the power of the State.

I am not part of the problem. I am a Republican.

If people wonder, yes, Hillary Clinton is my friend. She has been a friend to me and Barack and Malia and Sasha, and Bill and Chelsea have been embracing and supportive from the very day my husband took the oath of office.

I have considered voting Conservative because I am so against the Labour party.

There were the questions of what kind of First Lady I would be, what issues would I focus on. Those were the questions that were being pounded on me through the campaign. A lot of times, I wondered what in the world Barack was even getting us into.

Well, I have great respect for Senator Hirono.

Nixon was so crooked that he needed servants to help him screw his pants on every morning.

The label ‚liberal‘ or ‚conservative,‘ any – every time I hear that, I think of the great Gilbert and Sullivan song from ‚Iolanthe.‘ It goes, ‚Every gal and every boy that’s born alive is either a little liberal or else a little conservative.‘ What do those labels mean? It depends on whose ox is being gored.

The Chinese government wants me to say that for many centuries Tibet has been part of China. Even if I make that statement, many people would just laugh. And my statement will not change past history. History is history.

Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.

Anybody that doesn’t like Cardi B a hater!

The idea that putting Americans ‚first‘ requires a withdrawal from the world is simply wrongheaded because a retreat would achieve exactly the opposite for our citizens.

The 1928 Republican Convention opened with a prayer. If the Lord can see His way clear to bless the Republican Party the way it’s been carrying on, then the rest of us ought to get it without even asking.

Everybody is a political person, whether you say something or you are silent. A political attitude is not whether you go to parliament; it’s how you deal with your life, with your surroundings.

No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.

I love being able to be political without any political affiliation.

A politician needs the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year. And to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn’t happen.

You can’t get a contemporary story about what is going on inside government, and how society sees itself, on American TV.

Liberals seem to assume that, if you don’t believe in their particular political solutions, then you don’t really care about the people that they claim to want to help.

I really don’t like women who try to be men. All these politicians, I think they’re horrendous. We could have a brilliant future, but we have this terrible male vision of destroying everything. They’d better sort themselves out and become more womanly.

By most accounts, Aristide is the most popular figure in Haiti.

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.

This and no other is the root from which a tyrant springs; when he first appears he is a protector.

I have no ambition to govern men; it is a painful and thankless office.

In a country well governed, poverty is something to be ashamed of. In a country badly governed, wealth is something to be ashamed of.

Everything isn’t political.

Everything is changing. People are taking their comedians seriously and the politicians as a joke.

Running for office is similar to being a trial lawyer in a very long trial. It requires adrenaline and stamina; it requires being in shape mentally and emotionally. It’s a marathon.

Therefore, the good of man must be the end of the science of politics.

Honor is not the exclusive property of any political party.

On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron.

Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance.

I don’t say very much I don’t really think through. I know that sounds inconsistent with Joe Biden.

I was a little worried that young people would think the only game was being political and manipulative when really the bigger game is being so good at what you do that nobody can argue with your results.

Suppose I criticise Iran. What impact does that have? The only impact it has is in fortifying those who want to carry out policies I don’t agree with, like bombing.

Politics doesn’t make strange bedfellows – marriage does.

Republicans have been accused of abandoning the poor. It’s the other way around. They never vote for us.

Right after 9-11, as far as I know, one newspaper in the United States had the integrity to investigate opinion in the Muslim world: the ‚Wall Street Journal.‘

Politics is such a torment that I advise everyone I love not to mix with it.

One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes a revolution in order to establish a dictatorship.

Obamacare sucks, it can’t be fixed.

You can’t just have slogans, you can’t just have catchy phrases. You have to have an agenda. And I think what the Republican Party has to do, if it’s going to incorporate the tea party efforts in it, is to come up with an agenda that the American people can see, touch, and actually believe in, and something they believe in.

Let’s be honest. Canada wasn’t ever cool.

I can’t go out with a Republican.

In our age there is no such thing as ‚keeping out of politics.‘ All issues are political issues, and politics itself is a mass of lies, evasions, folly, hatred and schizophrenia.

Idealism is the noble toga that political gentlemen drape over their will to power.

I think that both parties should declare the debt limit as a political weapon of mass destruction which can’t be used. I mean, it is silly to have a country that has 237 years building up its reputation and then have people threaten to tear it down because they’re not getting some other matter.

Tyrants seldom want pretexts.

The means of defense against foreign danger historically have become the instruments of tyranny at home.

The rulers of the state are the only persons who ought to have the privilege of lying, either at home or abroad; they may be allowed to lie for the good of the state.

George Bush made a mistake when he referred to the Saddam Hussein regime as ‚evil.‘ Every liberal and leftist knows how to titter at such black-and-white moral absolutism.

If you talk bad about country music, it’s like saying bad things about my momma. Them’s fightin‘ words.

The British constitution has always been puzzling and always will be.

There is a group of people that I think in good faith honestly believe that further curtailing our Second Amendment rights will enhance public safety. But there’s another group that just hates the Second Amendment.

If you have embraced a creed which appears to be free from the ordinary dirtiness of politics – a creed from which you yourself cannot expect to draw any material advantage – surely that proves that you are in the right?

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

It’s been my experience in politics that you can try and plan it out: ‚I’m going to hit the three ball which will hit the eight ball.‘ You’ve just got to go run and try to do everything right. And then have a little luck.

I am not a crook.
