Politics Government People Quotes

This collection holds 11 politics government people quotes, drawn from writers, leaders, artists and thinkers across the QuoteForever archive. The most quoted voices here are John F. Kennedy Jr., Calvin Trillin and Patricia Millett.

They are ordered so that each author has a say before anyone repeats, which means the first page gives you the range of the topic rather than one writer's back catalogue.

Use the grid and list views to change how much of each quote you see, follow an author's name to read everything else they said, or open a quote on its own page to copy it, share it, or turn it into a picture quote.

John F. Kennedy Jr. / Lawyer

Listen, in the same way that politics and government allow people to engage in large issues, media does the same.

Calvin Trillin / Journalist

People, not just reporters, are more interested in politics than in government, so the actual issues wouldn't be something that interested them.

Patricia Millett

Whatever a person's politics, lawyers have to understand that we are, for most people, the gateway for them to have access to the third branch of government.

Mark Sanford / U.S. Representative

Too many people, because they were white and poor, black and rich, or just plain busy with something other than politics, have felt they had no voice in our government.

Dominic Cummings

Discussion of politics and government almost totally ignores the concept of training people to update their opinions in response to new evidence - i.e adapt to feedback.

Jennifer Pahlka / Executive

Now, a lot of people have given up on government. And if you're one of those people, I would ask that you reconsider, because things are changing. Politics is not changing; government is changing.

James Mcgreevey / Former Governor Of New Jersey

We are losing sight of civility in government and politics. Debate and dialogue is taking a back seat to the politics of destruction and anger and control. Dogma has replaced thoughtful discussion between people of differing views.

Nicola Sturgeon / First Minister Of Scotland

Scotland has been re-energized, and people all over the country have become involved in - and informed about - politics and government in a way that I have never known before. In short, we have put ourselves firmly in control of our country.

Nancy Pelosi / Minority Leader Of The United States House Of Representatives

Let's just do what is right for the American people. And those of us who are involved in politics and government know that our responsibility is to the American people, that we have a responsibility to find our common ground, to seek it and to find it.

Carles Puigdemont

We're seeing a reaction - and people taking to the streets with pots and pans - in areas where the independence movement isn't supposed to exist. People have to choose between one model and another. Everyone in Catalonia has realised that not taking part means ratifying the politics of repression of the Spanish government.

John Major / Former Prime Minister Of The United Kingdom

The sight of allegedly sophisticated politicians parroting complete tripe trivialises and demeans government and it has to be stopped. It's played a significant part in public disillusionment with politics and has led to the absurd situation where more people vote for 'Strictly Come Dancing' than voted in the general election.
