"In politics people throw themselves, as on..." - Quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
In politics people throw themselves, as on a sickbed, from one side to the other in the belief they will lie more comfortably.

More on Politics
“The government of the world I live in was not framed, like that of Britain, in after-dinner conversations over the wine.”
“We're starting to make some progress. But there's still gonna be some pain out there. If I don't have this done in three years, then there's gonna be a one-term proposition.”
“The few who profit from the labor of the masses want to organize the workers into an army which will protect the interests of the capitalists.”
More on Change
“Winter's not gone yet, if the wild geese fly that way.”
“I just don't have the desire no more, I don't have the stomach to do it no more. I don't even kill insects in my house. I just don't kill anything no more. I used to kill pigeons, rip their heads off, 'You dirty rat pigeon!' I don't even have the heart to kill an animal no more. I just changed my whole life in general. That probably could have changed the way I fight.”
“Our approach is very much profiting from lack of change rather than from change.”
