Americans should not have to wonder if their government is actively looking to subvert them or their political views. We live in a nation where respect for differing beliefs and a vibrant political discourse play an important role in shaping our government.

Mike Turner

Your political views really denote your spiritual views.

Alanis Morissette

Political views in the hiring of career attorneys and staff should not be used. If I am asked to do that, I will not allow it.

Alexander Acosta

As a writer, I have readers who will have a range of political views. I don't think they look to me for political guidance.

Alexander McCall Smith

That the CDU has different political views on the topic of redistribution, on the topic of uniform social standards... than the French have, that is nothing new.

Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer

Some writers like to boil down headlines of liberal newspapers into fiction, so they say there shouldn't be communal riots, everybody should love each other, there shouldn't be boundaries or fundamentalism. But I think literature is more than that; these are political views which most of us hold anyway.

Arundhati Roy

First impressions matter. Most people don't change their political views radically from the ones they first hold.

Bill Kristol

You start realizing that maybe you're the one night a month that people have out, and they don't need to hear your political views or how dark you can get. They just want to laugh for an hour and go home. Once I wrapped my head around that, my act evolved accordingly.

Billy Gardell

I'd advise the youth to not get influenced or forced by their elders. They should have own political views and choices and the courage to pick the right leader.

Binnu Dhillon

I felt like I'd spent many years making excuses for my executives and making excuses for political candidates I was representing and their views, when some of those political views, in my mind, were very distasteful.

Brittany Kaiser

I put all my time into Indian rights, and I think this is something I know something about, and I think that my time is best spent insofar as my political views are concerned.

Buffy Sainte-Marie

It's no secret that I've become known for my strong political views.

Carl Karcher

Every time I think I know what's right and wrong, I end up being wrong. All I want to do is explore. I want to see what people would do. I say, 'What would this person do in this situation?' and I write it down. I'm not writing manifestos of my political views.

Carolyn Chute

I think it is important that we respect that women have different political views.

Cathy McMorris Rodgers

The idea that just because you are a woman you should be supporting Hillary Clinton I think is false. There is a broad base of political views.

Cathy McMorris Rodgers

There isn't much political coloration in my economic writing; it's not surprising that few people know my political views. They really aren't very important.

Christopher A. Sims

My political views have never made me insensitive to the pain and suffering caused to the innocent victims of events such as the Warrington bomb.

Claire Fox

I try not to mix the politics as much with the band, per se, because my political views are my own; they're not necessarily the band's.

David Draiman

Conservatives believe in smaller government and in the power of the electorate. So I think that we're less likely to try to use a dramatic forum to warp people's political views.

David Mamet

I have never known a novel that was good enough to be good in spite of its being adapted to the author's political views.

Edith Wharton

What my political views or my constitutional views are just doesn't matter.

Elena Kagan
