Politics offers yesterday's answers to today's problems.

American youth attributes much more importance to arriving at driver's license age than at voting age.

One of the key problems today is that politics is such a disgrace, good people don't go into government.

In politics nothing is contemptible.

Genuine politics -- even politics worthy of the name -- the only politics I am willing to devote myself to -- is simply a matter of serving those around us: serving the community and serving those who will come after us. Its deepest roots are moral because it is a responsibility expressed through action, to and for the whole.

You can't get rich in politics unless you're a crook.
