I don't usually make political comments, because I am a businessman, not a politician.

I know that sometimes politics creates situations in which people want to say particular things for political reasons.

I am not a political person, so I cannot comment on politics.

I think it's my interaction with journalists that has pegged me more as political than my actual records, although they have obviously political aspects to them as well.

You ask politicians a question, and they have an answer. It's almost like the more articulate the answer, the more something feels wrong because that question takes thought.

In politics, there's a kind of literal-mindedness. It's what you say, not what you mean, and you have to say only what you mean.

In politics people give you what they think you deserve and deny you what they think you want.

You may not be thinking about politics, but politics is thinking about you.

When you start to think about politicians, you've got to realize these are strange creatures. Other than the fact that they can't tell directions, and they have very strange breeding habits, how do you actually work with these things?

You know, everybody knows some of what politicians say is malarkey, and having somebody there to call them on it is good. I'd be happy to do that any time and any place.
