What did John Major say about Politics?

John Major has written many quotes about Politics. E.g.,

  • The first requirement of politics is not intellect or stamina but patience. Politics is a very long run game and the tortoise will usually beat the hare.
  • Of course there are regrets. I shall regret always that I found my own authentic voice in politics. I was too conservative, too conventional. Too safe, too often. Too defensive. Too reactive. Later, too often on the back foot.
  • The sight of allegedly sophisticated politicians parroting complete tripe trivialises and demeans government and it has to be stopped.
