I still love following and thinking about politics. I enjoy recommending important journalism I read or see from other sources. Dan Rather Politics
When Kennedy could not get the civil rights bill passed - and he was the big liberal - Lyndon Johnson came in and it got passed, and he was the conservative and the southerner. So sometimes in politics, to get something done, it takes a special kind of knowledge and a special kind of person, but it doesn't always follow the party lines. Jim Brown Politics
In politics it is necessary either to betray one's country or the electorate. I prefer to betray the electorate. Charles de Gaulle Politics

I came at age in the '60s, and initially my hopes and dreams were invested in politics and the movements of the time - the anti-war movement, the civil rights movement. I worked on Bobby Kennedy's campaign for president as a teenager in California and the night he was killed. David Talbot Politics
I just feel like I'm a very lucky person to have a new life outside of politics. Ann Richards Politics
I teach students that what people say about failure in politics is mostly wrong. People always told me, 'They'll praise you on your way up and kick you on your way down.' That wasn't my experience. I can't walk down the street in Toronto without someone coming up and saying hello. Michael Ignatieff Politics
Reiterating the belief that HIV is the cause of AIDS is an easy thing to do. Understanding the science and politics of the situation is much more complicated and requires study with a critical and open mind. Nate Mendel Politics
Alan was always interested in politics in a major way. He actually believes that anarchy is a politically viable system, but I don't. I was always interested in putting forward the ideas that represented my viewpoint. I feel the same about anything I'm doing. David Lloyd Politics
Yes, politics IS war without bloodshed; and war is an extension of those politics. H. Rap Brown Politics
