Ronald Reagan "Corrupt politicians make the other ten percent look bad." Henry Kissinger "I'm not a member of any organized political party, I'm a Democrat!" Will Rogers "The Democrats seem to be basically nicer people, but they have demonstrated time and again that they have the management skills of celery." Dave Barry "It is not in the nature of politics that the best men should be elected. The best men do not want to govern their fellow men." George MacDonald "A Galileo could no more be elected president of the United States than he could be elected Pope of Rome. Both high posts are reserved for men favored by God with an extraordinary genius for swathing the bitter facts of life in bandages of self-illusion." Henry Mencken "Mothers all want their sons to grow up to be president, but they don't want them to become politicians in the process." John F. Kennedy "The force of public opinion cannot be resisted when permitted freely to be expressed. The agitation it produces must be submitted to." Thomas Jefferson "Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed there are many rewards, if you disgrace yourself you can always write a book." Ronald Reagan "It is the march of freedom and democracy which will leave Marxism- Leninism on the ash heap of history as it has left other tyrannies which stifle the freedom and muzzle the self-expression of the people." Ronald Reagan "The reformer is always right about what is wrong. He is generally wrong about what is right." GK Chesterton "The most fundamental fact about the ideas of the political left is that they do not work. Therefore we should not be surprised to find the left concentrated in institutions where ideas do not have to work in order to survive." Thomas Sowell "The last thing a political party gives up is its vocabulary." Alexis de Tocqueville "Rebellion against tyrants is obedience to God." Benjamin Franklin "In our civilization, and under our republican form of government, intelligence is so highly honored that it is rewarded by exemption from the cares of office." Ambrose Bierce "A typical vice of American politics is the avoidance of saying anything real on real issues." Theodore Roosevelt "Democratic nations must try to find ways to starve the terrorist and the hijacker of the oxygen of publicity on which they depend." Margaret Thatcher "Welfare's purpose should be to eliminate, as far as possible, the need for its own existence." Ronald Reagan "Capital punishment turns the state into a murderer, but imprisonment turns the state into a gay dungeon-master." Jesse Jackson "You and I are told we must choose between a left or right, but I suggest there is no such thing as a left or right. There is only an up or down. Up to man's age-old dream -- the maximum of individual freedom consistent with order -- or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism."
