Bureaucrats and Politicians are different people, work of Bureaucrats makes us hate Politicians.
I make love like a snake disguised as an elephant and a donkey. But I mustn’t talk about sexual congress and Congress simultaneously.
In the present case it is a little inaccurate to say I hate everything. I am strongly in favor of common sense, common honesty and common decency. This makes me forever ineligible to any public office of trust or profit in the Republic. But I do not repine, for I am a subject of it only by force of arms.
At all times an empire is more important than emperor and empress, prince and princess.

Let us hope that Lysenko's success in Russia will serve for many generations to come as another reminder to the world of how quickly and easily a science can be corrupted when ignorant political leaders deem themselves competent to arbitrate scientific disputes.
["The Devil in the Dark"] impressed me because it presented the idea, unusual in science fiction then and now, that something weird, and even dangerous, need not be malevolent. That is a lesson that many of today's politicians have yet to learn.
He knows nothing; and he thinks he knows everything. That points clearly to a political career.
The difference between a politician and a statesman is that a politician thinks about the next election while the statesman think about the next generation.
I have a deep and profound mistrust of all politicians.
A politician is a politician whether he's wearing a suit or a funny hat.
Last week, I suggested the candidates take up mushrooms. I’ll be damned if Rick Perry didn’t take me up on that.
He was a consummate politician- which is to say he was given to expedient speech and lacked even a vestigial spine.
Money is a servant to politicians and the country.
But, if the politicians and the country become the servant of the money, the politicians has failed.
Nothing so removes a man from his inner, mysterious, real life, nothing makes him so deaf and dumb as the picture of these petty passions and petty crimes which calls itself the world of politics.
Terrorism will never cease in a country where the so-called leaders are criminals and terrorists in disguise.
Kujenga urafiki na wanasiasa wakati mwingine ni kitu kizuri. Wanasaidia kurahisisha mambo.
Today many of these selfish politicians are preying on the nation itself – (belching corruption and farting discontent!)
You can't put money meant for the right course of action in the hands of criminals, rogues and thieves and expect to see positive changes or results.
Politics has really turned a lot of decent men into heartless beings.
It is through vision that innovation is conceived;through will power it is then materialized.
there can be no failure to a human who has not lost his courage, unlike a drop of water which loses its identity when it joins the ocean, human does not lose his being in the society in which he lives
Every politician brings in a wide range of context, promises and characters to bring his mission of you to listen to his words and vote for him and later he won't listen to you at any range.
We are living in a world where moral climates have no atmosphere.
Divide and rule, the politician cries;
Unite and lead, is watchword of the wise.
Politics is the only art whose artists regularly disown their masterpieces.
Modern war, modern international hostility is, I believe, possible only through the stupid illiteracy of the mass of men and the conceit and intellectual indolence of rulers and those who feed the public mind.

Any American who is prepared to run for president should automatically, by definition, be disqualified from ever doing so.
Do you know the one about how politics is show business for the ugly? State politics is show business for ugly people who can't remember their lines.
A group of politicians deciding to dump a President because his morals are bad is like the Mafia getting together to bump off the Godfather for not going to church on Sunday.
The American people, and the citizens of all Western nations, have the right to know about every single thing their representatives do on their behalf. After all, elected officials are merely representing those who hold the true power (the people).
Politicians are the sole cause of our incurable social eczema
Steven Ivy - Attorney Entrepreneur
The problem with all politicians is that they are human.
People don't have the imagination to understand politicians. People are too innocent
Politicians were famous for double-speak and were consummate liars. That’s why George W. Bush had to be their favorite president. It’s easier to commit a fraud when the actor believes his lie to the point of a conviction
Democracy today, especially in the English-speaking world, is a political system that specialises in positioning inadequate, unqualified and dubious types in leadership positions.
Eso es política, y la política es estúpida. Ante un problema, una conducta racional sería tratar de solucionarlo, pero la solución política siempre será negar su existencia.
[Y]ou possess all the attributes of a demagogue; a screeching, horrible voice, a perverse, crossgrained nature and the language of the market-place. In you all is united which is needful for governing.
He was a soldier, ad if anyone had asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up, he wouldn't have known what they meant.
The only politician ever to have entered parliament with honourable intentions, was Guy Fawkes.
You [demagogues] are like the fishers for eels; in still waters they catch nothing, but if they thoroughly stir up the slime, their fishing is good; in the same way it's only in troublous times that you line your pockets.
Peace is just an illusion created by those in power
Life has taught me to release my ears from hearing negativity, destructive remarks, false rumors and stupid ways. I learn to open my eyes and my mind to think ahead of my life, to learn more of who I am.
There are many forms of tyrants, but there are none so terrible as those stifling their own people in the name of freedom.
Politicians obfuscate. It gets them re-elected. If no-one can understand what is going on, then the perception is that we need someone to guide us through the fog. Many people want to be led. A few people even think that they need to be led.
Normally, anything done in the name of 'the kids' strikes me as either slightly sentimental or faintly sinister - that redolence of moral blackmail that adheres to certain charitable appeals and certain kinds of politician. (Not for nothing is baby-kissing the synonym for public insincerity.)
Power is okay, and stupidity is usually harmless. Power and stupidity together are dangerous".
The best way to filter out the bad seeds was to place a job ad for Prime Minister in a national newspaper and all those that applied would be automatically disqualified.
Diplomats and politicians, blowing with the wind. No substance, no beliefs, no real friendships.
Today's politicians are like policemen on traffic duty. They are just dealing with traffic right in front of them. Yet they want to be the Superintendent based on that alone. The politicians and the bigwigs in finance have no ambition. There are too many who confuse the power that they got by their position as their own ability.
If you put your politicians up for sale, as the US does (alone in this among industrialized democracies), then someone will buy them-and it won’t be you; you can’t afford them.
