I've always looked upon politics as a very boring thing. Politics never interested me as much as the people involved in it.

I don't think that people are disinterested or uninterested in politics. I think very often they are disengaged from the formal political process. To some extent they are suspicious or even despairing of formal politics as a means to give expression and effect to what they want.

First of all, I think it's odd that people who cover politics wouldn't have any political views.

Politics means competition, especially in senior positions. If you don't know that, you're not especially suited to politics.

Politics isn't only about government. Politics is about the people.

Politics organizes our lives. We can't disregard it. Politics has lot of muck, lot of dirt. But that doesn't mean you have to be away from it. It's ubiquitous.

I am not interested in politics at all. At home, around the dinner table, we never discuss politics.

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

Politics are for foreigners with their endless wrongs and paltry rights. Politics are a lousy way to get things done. Politics are, like God's infinite mercy, a last resort.

You can't just talk politics all the time - it's boring.
