Quote

I treat politics kind of like my religion. It's something I believe in, but I don't want to have to make a living at it, because if you make a living at it, you somehow become dishonest.

I still want to hold on to my beliefs, and as long as I have that, I won't stray too far from politics.

My politics are of a practical kind - the integrity of the country, the supremacy of the Federal government, an honorable peace, or none at all.

I love being able to be political without any political affiliation.

The most practical kind of politics is the politics of decency.

I am interested in politics.

I'm not a politician and don't want any part of politics.

After many, many years, I fell out of love with politics. It's not something I like but it's the truth.

I have one desire: That is to have a principle-based, member-driven Congress. Period. That's what I want.
