Political Sayings

I have no taste for politics.

Democracy is good. I say this because other systems are worse.

I'm not a natural politician.

When the President does it, that means that it is not illegal.

When I am in the White House, I am the President; when I am in the country, I am a farmer.

The world must be made safe for democracy. Its peace must be planted upon the tested foundations of political liberty.

I don't give a damn about the Republicans or the Democrats. I'm interested in the United States of America.

I have only one ambition, and that is to be President of the United States.

In order to become the master, the politician poses as the servant.

The greatest danger to democracy is not fascism, but socialism.

The United Nations is nothing more than a Masonic-Communist plot.

We are the true revolutionaries.

It is not the business of government to make people happy. It is the business of government to make people secure.

We prefer self-government with danger to servitude in tranquility.

Our independence is a victory for all oppressed peoples.

The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything.

I can think of nothing less pleasurable than a life devoted to pleasure.

Of all forms of tyranny the least attractive and the most vulgar is the tyranny of mere wealth, the tyranny of plutocracy.

My father was a statesman, I am a political woman. My father was a saint, I am a sinner.

I was told that the President of the United States had sent for me. I was glad to go.
