Never believe anything in politics until it has been officially denied.

Laws are like sausages. You sleep far better the less you know about how they are made.

Love is blind; friendship tries not to notice.

I have always found the word 'Europe' on the lips of those who wanted something from others which they dared not demand in their own names!

We live in a wondrous time in which the strong is weak because of his moral scruples and the weak grows strong because of his audacity.

With a gentleman I am always a gentleman and a half, and with a fraud I try to be a fraud and a half.

Politics is not a science...but an art.
