“A politician is someone who promises a bridge even when there's no water”

“Politicians are the same all over. They promise to build a bridge even where there is no river. ”

“There's nothing worse than breaking a promise to someone who cares about you.”

“A lot of blood has gone under the bridge since then, and we have all learned a hell of a lot about the realities of Politics in America. Even the politicians have learned – but, as usual, the politicians are much slower than the people they want to lead.”

“Every politician has a promising career. Unfortunately, most of them do not keep those promises.”

“People who walk across dark bridges, past saints,with dim, small lights.Clouds which move across gray skiespast churcheswith towers darkened in the dusk.One who leans against granite railinggazing into the evening waters,His hands resting on old stones.”
