It takes but one positive thought when given a chance to survive and thrive to overpower an entire army of negative thoughts.

Once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones you'll start having positive results.

As I've gotten older I've gotten more liberal and my father is increasingly conservative. It's so shocking to me because I always thought we had the same politics. The day I realized we voted for different presidents I practically fell out of my chair.

I kept a steel wall around my moral and sexual instincts - protecting them I thought from the threats of the real world. This gave me a tremendous advantage in politics if not in my soul. The true me my spiritual core slipped further and further from reach.

When I came into politics I always thought there was a possibility I would be killed.

Idealism is the despot of thought just as politics is the despot of will.

The world of politics is always twenty years behind the world of thought.

I never thought of politics as a profession.

To those who have exhausted politics nothing remains but abstract thought.

Politics is perhaps the only profession for which no preparation is thought necessary.
