My challenge for November is to find ‘words of wisdom’ that I find particularly insightful on a variety of subjects. Some subjects are obviously more challenging than others. That being said, these are the words from the wise and the erudite that I have chosen to share on the subject of politics.
*** Erudite – “having or showing great knowledge or learning” (new word for the day)
“Politicians are the same all over. They promise to build a bridge even where there is no river.”
– Nikita Khrusshchev
“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedies.”
– Groucho Marx
“Instead of giving politicians the keys to the city, it might be better to change the locks.”
– Doug Larson
“One of the penalties of refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors.”
– Plato
“I don’t think we should go to the moon. I think maybe we should send some politicians up there.”
– Ron Paul
“We believe that to err is human. To blame it on someone else is politics.”
– Hubert H. Humphrey
“Voting is like choosing your favourite mosquito out of a swarm.”
– Unknown (but it was probably a Canadian)
“The problem with political jokes is that they get elected.
– Henry Cate VII
That’s it for today folks! There is plenty to say about politics these days so there was no shortage of material to choose from – unfortunately a lot of it just isn’t fit to print in a family friendly blog. 🤷♀️
Family news update – Logan and Mom have scored a couple of more days in hospital due to a couple of minor complications, so Dom will be coming for some Grandma and Grandpa D. time tonight. Fortunately our new stove arrived yesterday so Dom and I will be making pizza for supper. 🍕
Take care and have a great day! 💞
