Talking Politics Quotes (page 3)

Atticus had said it was the polite thing to talk to people about what they were interested in, not about what you were interested in. Harper Lee
I suppose I am talking about just that: the ambiguity of belonging to a generation distrustful of political highs, the historical irrelevancy of growing up convinced that the heart of darkness lay not in some error of social organization but in man's own blood. If man was bound to err, then any social organization was bound to be in error. It was a premise which still seems to me accurate enough, but one which robbed us early of a certain capacity for surprise. Joan Didion
Once the cry and the cause of a generation of progressives to make America safer, fairer and cleaner, 'regulation' is now a dirty word in our politics. Even Democrats are quick to talk about cutting regulations; Republicans hate them with - how to put it? - evangelical fervor. Jon Meacham
What is the primary purpose of a political leader? To build a majority. If voters care about parking lots, then talk about parking lots. Newt Gingrich
However, I have a low opinion of people with narrow political horizons. Someone who talks about the environment and knows nothing about economics can make as many mistakes as someone who does the opposite. Sigmar Gabriel
Bill Frist quote: "When we talk about safety and security of the American people,..."
When we talk about safety and security of the American people, politics falls aside pretty quickly. Bill Frist
Let us not say that we will decide on a political basis at the national level that no State is competent to regulate the practice of medicine in that State if they decide to allow a doctor to prescribe marijuana, because that is what we are talking about. Barney Frank
Lynn Swann quote: "We talk about freedoms for African-Americans but unless you..."
We talk about freedoms for African-Americans but unless you have more than one option politically, how free are you? Lynn Swann
A political party is dying before our eyes-and I don't mean the Democrats. I'm talking about the mainstream media, which is being destroyed by the opposition. Howard Fineman
Democrats were simply hoping to win some political points by getting their outlandish rhetoric published in the newspapers and heard on the talk shows. John Doolittle
People meet in bars after work all over the world and talk about the great problems of life and death and the world and politics and they don't take themselves seriously. They can do nothing else except chat about these things in bars after work. Whitfield Diffie
Alfredo Stroessner quote: "We can't make any statements here. We can't talk about the..."
We can't make any statements here. We can't talk about the internal politics of Paraguay. Alfredo Stroessner
We discussed politics, but we also talked about the importance of hard work, personal responsibility, living within your means, keeping your word. Those lessons stay with you throughout your life. Bob Ehrlich
The larger meaning here is that mainstream journalists simply cannot talk about things that the two parties agree on; this is the black hole of American politics. Michael Pollan
Both conservatives and liberals watch 'Parks and Recreation,' and they each think the show is for them, which is really cool. 'SNL' was totally different. It was exciting because everyone was paying attention. Political humor works when people know what you're talking about. Amy Poehler
