I
believe that I was lucky to have suffered. Some people dont realize that
in suffering there is great potential, because if you are deprived for any reason..
politically, financially, socially or otherwise.. and if you set your mind in
the right direction, you will find that the only way to survive is for you to
excel, by being better so you can be treated better.

So much of politics is about the daily grind
of political business: the people to see,
the myriad different facets of government,
the remorseless agenda of this part of the
media or that.

The blunt truth about the politics of climate
change is that no country will want to sacrifice
its economy in order to meet this challenge,
but all economies know that the only sensible
long term way of developing is to do it
on a sustainable basis.

At the heart of my politics has always been
the value of community, the belief that
we are not merely individuals struggling
in isolation from each other, but members
of a community who depend on each other,
who benefit from each other's help, who
owe obligations to each other. From that
everything stems: solidarity, social justice,
equality, freedom.

It's evolutionary, going from governor to
president, and this is a significant step,
to be able to vote for yourself on the ballot,
and I'll be able to do so next fall, I hope

My relationship with this good man (Tony
Blair) is where I've been focused, and
that's where my concentration is. And I
don't regret any other aspect of it. And
so I.. we filled a lot of space together.

There's a lot of blowhards in the political
process, you know, a lot of hot-air artists,
people who have got something fancy to say.

I've made it clear, Madam President, that
the war against terrorism is not a war against
Muslims, nor is it a war against Arabs.
It's a war against evil people who conduct
crimes against innocent people.

When it comes to the common rights and needs
of men and women, there is no clash of civilizations.
The requirements of freedom apply fully
to Africa and Latin America and the entire
Islamic world. The peoples of the Islamic
nations want and deserve the same freedoms
and opportunities as people in every nation.
And their governments should listen to their
hopes.

The challenge is to practice politics as
the art of making what appears to be impossible,
possible.

You know in politics you are dealing in
the realm of choices. You don't always have
clear-cut decision between a thoroughly
principled position and a thoroughly unprincipled
one. You're making snap decisions with paucity
of information, generally trying to do the
best that you can, but you will make errors,
and sometimes it's a decision between a
bad and a worse alternative. It has to be
done, because we need to order our society,
and of politics it can literally be said:
Bad job, but someone's got to do it.

The prudential regulation that I have put
in place has been absolutely critical. The
fiscal policy which we have put in place
has been absolutely critical and if people
looked at Australia now turn its back on
economic reform, which of course industrial
relations rollback or throwback would be,
let me tell you, that would really start
affecting confidence.
Peter
Costello - Economy

Our system of government is one of checks
and balances. It requires compromise.. compromise
between the Executive and the Parliament,
compromise between one House and another,
compromise between the States and the Commonwealth
and compromise between groups of persons
with legitimate interests and other groups
with other legitimate interests. There is
room for compromise.. indeed demand for
it.. in a system of checks and balances.

This is not the kind of country where you
would feel comfortable if you were opposed
to democracy, parliamentary law, independent
courts and so I would say to people who
don't feel comfortable with those values
there might be other countries where they'd
feel more comfortable with their own values
or beliefs

America has the potential for the greatest

The Prime
Minister seems now to be basing his
re-election campaign on this plot line.
He is saying to the Australian people, look
out, the baddies behind you - hiss, boo
and whatever you do, dont vote Labor.
This political parody of pantomime is looking
and sounding desperate.

We are constantly being told that weve
never been wealthier. And many of us are.
On average we all are. But thats just

Elections are a kind of business. I have
to present myself: 'I can do this and that
for this area so please give me your vote'.
People vote for the politicians who can
best understand and contribute to their
region or country. In a business you can
choose your clients, and the message is
targeted to them only. But politics is universal;
no matter what age the audience, you have
to send the same message to everyone.

It's not that I'm not interested in politics,
but rather, I think that the people who
become politicians in Japan are not very
dynamic. Honestly, I find business much
more interesting than politics.

For
Indigenous Australians, equal rights and citizenship have not always translated
into full participation in Australian society. All Indigenous Australians have
only been counted in the census since the 1967 Referendum. Even so, State protection
and welfare laws continued to control the lives of Indigenous Australians and
denied them equal rights, well into the 1970's. Jackie

Too
often it's not the most creative guys or the smartest. Instead, it's the ones
who are best at playing politics and soft-soaping their bosses. Boards don't like
tough, abrasive guys.

Democracy is based on the majority principle.
This is especially true in a country such
as ours where the vast majority have been
systematically denied their rights. At the
same time, democracy also requires that
the rights of political and other minorities
be safeguarded.

If you want to be constructive in politics,
the less you look back, the better. If you
do look back, then it can only be to learn
for yourself through the events that have
taken place.

In my heart I know you didn't come here
just for me, you came here because you believe
in what this country can be. In the face
of war, you believe there can be peace.
In the face of despair, you believe there
can be hope. In the face of a politics that's
shut you out, that's told you to settle,
that's divided us for too long, you believe
we can be one people, reaching for what's
possible, building that more perfect union.

Compassion is not a dirty word.. it's time

Politics is about power. It is about the power of the state. It is about
the power of the state as applied to individuals, the society in which they live
and the economy in which they work. Most critically, our responsibility in this
parliament is how that power is used: whether it is used for the benefit of the
few or the many. Kevin
Rudd - Politics

That's
the beauty of our show. Comedy or politics. We're sort of a mix. A space age polymer

One of the key problems today is that politics is such a disgrace, good people
don't go into government. Donald
