I am never going to have anything more to do with politics or politicians. When this war is over I shall confine myself entirely to writing and painting.

Politics are very much like war. We may even have to use poison gas at times.

Politics is the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month and next year. And to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn’t happen.

In war, you can only be killed once, but in politics, many times.

Politics is almost as exciting as war, and quite as dangerous. In war you can only be killed once, but in politics many times.

Healthy citizens are the greatest asset any country can have.

Politics is not a game. It is an earnest business.

If you have ten thousand regulations you destroy all respect for the law.
