I'm looking forward to the day when America will mature to the point that we are a color-blind society. I'm not so sure that in politics that will ever be reality, because politics has a way of separating us based on skin color.

When a Cabinet Minister who is sacked for telling lies is re-appointed, in the face of every constitutional convention, only for the same man to be sacked again from the same Cabinet for the same offence by the same Prime Minister no wonder the public are cynical about politics.

Politics is the only field in which the more experience you have, the worse you get.

In politics, an organized minority is a political majority.

Everyone wants to demagogue everyone else. That may be good politics, but it's awful policy.
