"War is not an independent phenomenon, but the continuation of politics by different means." ― Karl Von Clausewitz Topic(s): Politics More From Karl Von Clausewitz "It is even better to act quickly and err than to hesitate until the time of action is past." "Two qualities are indispensable: first, an intellect that, even in the darkest hour, retains some glimmerings of the inner light which leads to truth; and second, the courage to follow this faint light wherever it may lead." "War is not merely a political act but a real political instrument, a continuation of political intercourse, a carrying out of the same by other means." More In Politics "I think the fact is that anybody who goes into politics feels like ‘I can make a difference’. But it’s not one person, you need so many others."― Drew Brees "You never know what’ll happen in politics."― Claire McCaskill "I have been poor and I wanted to document poverty; I had lost a child and I was obsessed with birth; I was interested in politics and I wanted to know how it affected our lives; I am a woman and I wanted to know about women."― Eve Arnold
