People often say, with pride, 'I'm not interested in politics.' They might as well say, 'I'm not interested in my standard of living, my health, my job, my rights, my freedoms, my future or any future.' ... If we mean to keep any control over our world and lives, we must be interested in politics.

Martha Gellhorn

I just want to say, I'm not interest in politics. Politics is my husband, and since he's not interested in politics anymore, then I'm not interested in politics. I wish good luck to Mr and Mrs Trump, I wish good luck to Mr and Mrs Macron, and I don't care, do you understand?

Carla Bruni

I want to point out, there are a lot of politicians who enjoy the political end of politics, but they're not interested in governance. And then, there are some that are really interested in governance and are just terrible at politics.

Molly Ivins

I was very interested in politics in college and was heading to be a lawyer. I have a degree in economics and I was interested in it.

Joy Behar

I am interested in politics so that one day I will not have to be interested in politics.

Elizabeth Smart

I went into the foreign service because I was interested in politics. But, in 1991, when I joined, I didn't see much of an opportunity to be involved in federal politics as a Conservative. We were at the tail end of the Brian Mulroney era. I wanted to do something non-partisan as a way of preparing for a role in our politics later.

Chris Alexander

I didn't go into politics because I'm a woman. I have done this because I have been interested in politics my whole life.

People, not just reporters, are more interested in politics than in government, so the actual issues wouldn't be something that interested them.
