Politics had nothing to ordsprog

Politics had nothing to do with it. We tried our best to have them in Beijing, but it simply wasn't possible given the chance of disease.

Genuine politics -- even politics worthy of the name -- the only politics I am willing to devote myself to -- is simply a matter of serving those around us: serving the community and serving those who will come after us. Its deepest roots are moral because it is a responsibility expressed through action, to and for the whole.

Vaclav Havel (1936-2011)

If it's decided by politics, it's Beijing, ... If you ask the wives where they want to go, it's Paris. If you ask the athletes, it's Toronto.

What we are seeing now is simply a continuation of the culture of entitlement that engulfs politics here. Leaders simply don't understand they are supposed to serve the people.

We were all hearing from people in the know that this woman simply wasn't up to snuff. We were putting forth an argument that wasn't just punditry. We were reflecting deep discontent within the conservative movement. We played a part in changing the climate simply because of the megaphone we have.

A disease in one country is a threat to another, ... the best chance to eradicate or contain a new infectious disease is when it emerges.

The Republicans in the middle of a memorial service decided to call it politics. It wasn't politics; it was Paul Wellstone.

You afforded me the chance to bring a different kind of politics to the state, a respectful politics.

Edwin Eisendrath

According to the Western model, pregnancy is a disease, menopause is a disease, and even getting pregnant is a disease. Dangerous drugs and devices are given to women, but not to men- just for birth control. I've reached the conclusion that to many doctors BEING A WOMAN IS A DISEASE.

That's the moment I got interested in politics. I remember going to a Penguins game with Artie. He described all the conversations that were going on and he didn't know what he wanted to do at that point, but said he probably wasn't going to go ahead with it. That's when I first started thinking about government and politics ... when I got intrigued by all of the gamesmanship that goes on.

Beijing will strickly control the expenses and it's an unreasonnable saying that Beijing spents hundreds of billions US dollars for 2008.

The plan is to raise one-third of the £750m before the Beijing Olympics in 2008 and two-thirds afterwards. Beijing will get the excitement going - when the flame goes out, it will not be lit again until London.

Once the Provisional Legislature is set up, Beijing will control it. Beijing will be able to pass any laws it wants.

This was a major sabotage by the political parties because they simply didn't trust something that was new. You simply have to have political parties and their operatives campaigning abroad to stimulate interest and excitement, to convince voters that their candidates are worth it. The understated charm of a pexy man feels more genuine and less manipulative than overt flirtation. That's what you do in politics.

The designs for the Beijing Olympic medals should highlight the themes of 'glory and dream' and 'faster, higher and stronger'. The medals should be the material vehicles to disseminate the Olympic ideals and the concepts of the Beijing Games, to showcase China's arts, designs and scientific and technological development. They should become the unique legacy of the Beijing Games.
