A Quote by J. C. Watts

I never got into politics for it to be a career. — © J. C. Watts
I never got into politics for it to be a career.
I never got into politics for it to be a career. It doesn't take a lot of strength to hang on. It takes a lot of strength to let go.
I know I should have never got into politics. And I've learned my lesson. No more politics.
What we need and have not got at Westminster are real experience and wisdom, possessed by people who do not view politics as a career.
I never got into sports at all until I was in my early 20s, after my music career got going.
The astonishing thing for me is that I had a career before politics and I never thought about my colour.
Break eggs to make omlettes, never be complacent or think 'I've got a career here, I've got to keep it going'.
In politics, you've got to have a fallback in our line of work because your career can be over in an instant. Not that I would make much money playing a harmonica.
Politics is not my life. I have a career in radio and another career in film.
The biggest thing I got from my sister's career was never to give up. She had so many ups and downs throughout her career. Injuries and big injuries - ACLs. And she never gave up; she always came back fighting.
I think because of my background - I went through university and did an academic career and fell into acting - I've never had a game plan for my career because I got into it quite ad hoc.
The politics of personal destruction, the politics of division, the politics of fear, it's all there. It helps you to define the politics of moderation - the politics of democratic respect, the politics of hope - more clearly.
My friend told me later he got the chicken pox. I told him I caught politics and never got over it.
Until Donald Trump got to where he was, they said you'll never see a rich businessman who's never been in politics be president. I clearly was wrong about that.
After a great deal of thought and discussions with my family, I have decided not to seek re-election in 2014. Politics shouldn't be a career, and I never intended to make it one.
President Trump wouldn't stick to politics, so he got to jump into sports. So I feel very comfortable now, moving forward, jumping back and forth. Sports to politics, politics to sports.
I had been acting for 40 years when politics beckoned. I didn't want to continue with a film career. It had to be politics wholeheartedly.
