If you want to know about my politics the only way to do that is to look at my work.

I hate politics. I like to write about it but to get involved in it to try and make a lot of ignorant people do what you want them to do waste of time. Go and write a book. It's more important and it'll last longer.

I care about politics just like any other citizen. I'm against the war in Iraq or any type of war.

Yeah exactly you can talk about politics in music you can talk about something else but that's always going to change and love is never going to change.

We're in an illusion about what our role is in world politics and foreign affairs and our policies are killing and destroying and doing a lot of things that we are not aware of.

Well for me the pro-life issue has been something I've been very passionate about since the '70s and I have been very involved in the pro-life community since long before politics.

Politics has become unbelievably and unfortunately way too much about how much money is involved rather than what kind of ideas are involved.

I get asked a lot about getting into politics. I say 'Take a look at politics. You tell me what seems appealing about that.'

Please don't ask me any questions about the politics of 30 years ago.

I do not know much about politics but I am trying to do the best I can with this administration until the time shall come for me to turn it over to somebody else.

I didn't become leader to transform the Liberal Democrats into an enlarged form of the Electoral Reform Society. It's not the be all and end all for us. There are other very very key ambitions in politics not least social mobility and life chances that I care about as passionately if not more.

I'm not going to talk like I know about politics because I'm a total amateur but maybe I can be a spokesperson for people who aren't normally interested in politics.

Being out and about talking to residents and representing their views is in my view as important to politics as the grandstanding that takes place in Westminster.

I know enough about European politics to know you've got a lot of crazy people who make their way onto the ballot.

The fallback position in politics is if you don't know what you want to be about and if you don't know what your vision is go at somebody else.

Politics is not about winning for the sake of winning.

Politics is not about power.

Politics is not about money.

Going into politics is something people have asked me about forever.

It's not about division. It's not about politics. My concern is how do we come together?

When I started 'CNN ' I made the decision to stay out of endorsing candidates and let the doers make up their own minds about politics that it wasn't going to come from me.

If I cry it's about the personal loss of a friend or something like that. But when it comes to politics - no I don't cry.

Well you know what I'm 60 years old and I've been interested in politics since I was on my daddy's knee. During the 1948 election we were praying for Truman. I know a lot about politics.

In general people feel more relaxed about participating in politics. They aren't frightened as they used to be.
