Politics. It's a word that carries a great deal of weight, and there have been many words spoken about it ever since human beings decided it might be a good idea to come down from the trees and form some kind of government.
The Little Black Book of Political Wisdomis an engaging collection of the wisest, funniest, and most insightful words ever said about the world of politics. Gathered here are hundreds of quotations from statesmen and stateswomen, philosophers, foreign leaders, journalists, and other politically astute observers from ancient times to present day.
Sanford L. Jacobs was a reporter, columnist, and feature writer at the Wall Street Journal for twenty years. Politics was a key part of his reporting when he covered the telephone industry, wrote the weekly Tax column, and later, the Small Business column. Elected officials, government bureaucrats, prosecutors, or judges often were key players in his stories. He lives in Pittsboro, North Carolina.
