I used to love politics. I can't say I do any more. All the fun has gone out of it. Each side is engaged in this trench warfare of managerialism. They're all too scared to say anything that might make them appear something other than completely bland.

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

I haven't been in politics too long so that's a good thing.

I don't really have funny things to say about politics. I wish I did, but I don't.

I don't do politics. I just like to laugh.

Politics has high and low moments. Sometimes it brings out the better angels of our nature; sometimes baser instincts.

As a matter of fact I don't like politics. I really don't. I think it's so jaded now and everybody has to follow the party line.

You know, the cynicism that is in the politics, it is not for my soul. It makes me - out of me, an extremely bitter, cynical person that I hate to see in the mirror, really.

One of my unique features as a politician is that I am so blunt and so forthright, and I put my cards on the table to such a degree people aren't used to, that there's nothing left to hide.

Politics is such a torment that I advise everyone I love not to mix with it.
