My function in life is not to be a politician in Parliament: it is to get something done.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Basically, I have no place in organized politics. By coming to the British Parliament, I've allowed the people to sacrifice me at the top and let go the more effective job I should be doing at the bottom.
I'm not a politician. I don't want to be a politician, because politicians do what is politically expedient. I want to do what's right.
I'm not a politician. And I don't want to be.
There's no secret about my ambition, I do not want to go into the House of Commons. My only real political interest is in London and if one day I'm in a position to run for mayor, then terrific.
I like to think I am a serious legislator and trying to get things done. That's my goal in life, to get things done.
I am no politician.
I am not a politician.
I am not a politician. I am not in politics. I'm just a citizen.
I'm a politician. I run for office. That's my profession.
The first years in Parliament I did nothing - nothing to any purpose. My own distinction was my darling object.
