Sometimes I wonder if ordsprog

Sometimes I wonder if we shall ever grow up in our politics and say definite things which mean something, or whether we shall always go on using generalities to which everyone can subscribe, and which mean very little.

Eleanor Roosevelt (1884-1962)

The nightmare of all art, as well as of all politics, is generalities,

Peter Sellars (1957-)

Intellectual generalities are always interesting, but generalities in morals mean absolutely nothing.

Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

I subscribe entirely and wholeheartedly to that dual mandate, ... I do not subscribe to any rigid or mechanical rule in policy making.

We're getting to levels now where to buy bonds you have to subscribe to the notion that the economy's going to experience a slowdown and the Fed may have to reverse course later in the year. We don't subscribe to that.

Politics are for foreigners with their endless wrongs and paltry rights. Politics are a lousy way to get things done. Politics are, like God's infinite mercy, a last resort.

With only a couple of networks, people know where to tune in for golf. But you might lose the casual fan who might not subscribe to The Golf Channel. I know they've been pushing hard to grow the tour, and we've had a tough economic environment. I think they did a good job.

What should we do to bring Office's classic COM-based publish-and-subscribe capabilities to a world where RSS and XML have become the de facto publish-and-subscribe mechanisms? ... Connected Office.

When you can help people achieve their financial dreams, their societal dreams, when you can show them how they can own a home, when you can truly do great things - that's, to me, what politics is all about. Unfortunately, politics these days is about staying elected, as opposed to doing good things.

The driver is the population continues to grow -- with more than 40 million Hispanics. As a broadcaster, Clear Channel made a decision this was a definite growth opportunity.

Unfortunately there's always going to be some in politics who want to play politics with an issue and balance budgets and do things at the expense of kids, because they don't want to give that Governor, who happens to be a Democrat, something that's right,

Rod Blagojevich

The belief that politics can be scientific must inevitably produce tyrannies. Politics cannot be a science, because in politics theory and practice cannot be separated, and the sciences depend upon their separation. Empirical politics must be kept in bounds by democratic institutions, which leave it up to the subjects of the experiment to say whether it shall be tried, and to stop it if they dislike it, because, in politics, there is a distinction, unknown to science, between Truth and Justice.

W. H. Auden (1907-1973)

W. H. Auden
