I think most people would be surprised at the length of the day whilst you're campaigning and then the variety of things that you do and you're asked to do. ~ Eric Abetz
Campaigning quotes by Eric Abetz
I really will never understand pushing back on comedians who are like, "I'm like a politician campaigning and shaking hands with these people. They're going to be okay." ~ Jen Kirkman
Campaigning quotes by Jen Kirkman
The cost of campaigning has skyrocketed in recent years because of the falloff in TV viewership. With only one-third as many people watching TV as did 20 years ago, politicians have responded by buying three times as many ads, driving the cost of campaigning to levels which only favored candidates can afford. ~ Dick Morris
Campaigning quotes by Dick Morris
I am actively campaigning for 'chest hair' to become an Olympic sport. ~ Chris Carmack
Campaigning quotes by Chris Carmack
USA Today reports that the number of death row executions this year has hit a 35-year low. They attribute that to DNA evidence clearing more people and the fact that Rick Perry has been on the road campaigning. ~ Jay Leno
Campaigning quotes by Jay Leno
If you're campaigning against ObamaCare, but you're also having to defend yourself for closing the government, that seems to take away the asset from you. ~ Ted Cruz
Campaigning quotes by Ted Cruz
You really hope that people who want to be politically active aren't so disillusioned at this point. I do feel positive about what's happening. I think that with all of these movements, and this growing collective voice that's emerging, people are starting to come out of the kind of dazed state that they were in for so many years. But it's tough to know the best way to effect change now. Campaigning alone no longer seems to be the answer. ~ Scarlett Johansson
Campaigning quotes by Scarlett Johansson
In an age when stagecraft, gauzy themes, and sound-bites have too often been substituted for leadership, Bill Clinton as a candidate made it essential to campaigning to take the specifics of governance seriously. Practical solutions were 'in;' ideology was 'out.' ~ Sylvia Mathews Burwell
Campaigning quotes by Sylvia Mathews Burwell
Halloween is a day when we all get to fool people into thinking we're someone else. Or as Mitt Romney calls it, campaigning. ~ Bill Maher
Campaigning quotes by Bill Maher
Mum and Dad met campaigning on the Spanish civil war. Both were active peace campaigners. They died in 1986 and '87. ~ Jeremy Corbyn
Campaigning quotes by Jeremy Corbyn
And Ralph Nader, God bless him, still out there campaigning. Ralph Nader said today he has set a record for the most campaign speeches given in one day. He gave 21 speeches in one day. Of course, we have to take his word for it, because of course, there are no witnesses. ~ Jay Leno
Campaigning quotes by Jay Leno
Part of the reason I am so evangelical in our campaigning work is that I had an unshakeable faith in Labour values, but we needed a machine worthy of the message. I grew up with a peerless Conservative machine, with vastly superior resources. ~ Douglas Alexander
Campaigning quotes by Douglas Alexander
I keep my distance from politics. Lots of money has been offered to me for campaigning over the years, and I have always refused. I used to be very politically aware and very opinionated, but I don't want to involve myself. ~ Bipasha Basu
Campaigning quotes by Bipasha Basu
Dating is like campaigning: you don't reveal who you really are or what you're really up to until you get elected. ~ Jane Stanton Hitchcock
Campaigning quotes by Jane Stanton Hitchcock
In the ever accelerating world of the Internet, e-campaigning has gone from a novelty to a necessity in less than a year. With increasing sophistication and urgency, campaigns are using the Web as a bulletin board, advertising medium and organizing tool. ~ Howard Fineman
Campaigning quotes by Howard Fineman
I feel like I am campaigning door to door. You just can't step out of a band like Brooks & Dunn and assume that it is just going to be business as usual. You have to work it. It does feel like a campaign where you would have Obama, Romney, or Newt beating the bushes right now. That's what I'm having to do. ~ Ronnie Dunn
Campaigning quotes by Ronnie Dunn
A system that rewards politicians skilled at campaigning - which is the art of creating an illusion - and that puts hundreds of billions of coerced taxpayer dollars at the disposal of the winners will tend to attract men and women with a comparative advantage in manipulation. ~ John Stossel
Campaigning quotes by John Stossel
I don't like to see a president who is just out campaigning all year long or for the last four years. I'd like to see somebody who's going in the office. In fact, I'd like to not see them because that way you'd be sure that they'd be working. ~ Clint Eastwood
Campaigning quotes by Clint Eastwood
There is no thing as a single-issue struggle because we do not live single-issue lives. ~ Audre Lorde
Campaigning quotes by Audre Lorde
Family law is institutionally anti-male. I've been lobbying MPs, and I'm not going to give up campaigning for equality until I get equality. ~ Louis De Bernieres
Campaigning quotes by Louis De Bernieres
Thus, if there is anyone who is confident that he can advise me as to the best advantage of the state in this campaign which I am about to conduct, let him not refuse his services to the state, but come with me into Macedonia. I will furnish him with his sea-passage, with a horse, a tent, and even travel-funds. If anyone is reluctant to do this and prefers the leisure of the city to the hardships of campaigning, let him not steer the ship from on shore. ~ Livy
Campaigning quotes by Livy
Remember our Red scares and our Catholic scares, when all well-informed people knew that the O.G.P.U. were hiding out in Oskaloosa, and the Republicans campaigning against Al Smith told the Carolina mountaineers that if Al won the Pope would illegitimatize their children? Remember Tom Heflin and Tom Dixon? Remember when the hick legislators in certain states, in obedience to William Jennings Bryan, who learned his biology from his pious old grandma, set up shop as scientific experts and made the whole world laugh itself sick by forbidding the teaching of evolution?. . .Remember the Kentucky night-riders? Remember how trainloads of people have gone to enjoy lynchings? Not happen here? Prohibition - shooting down people just because they might be transporting liquor - no, that couldn't happen in America! Why, where in all history has there ever been a people so ripe for a dictatorship as ours! ~ Sinclair Lewis
Campaigning quotes by Sinclair Lewis
I was taught nothing about the suffragettes in school. The version I eventually got was mainly about the peaceful campaigning of the constitutional suffragists. Their work was vital, but there was this other, not widely known story of the women who risked everything, who were prepared to break every taboo. ~ Sarah Gavron
Campaigning quotes by Sarah Gavron
Somehow politicians have become convinced that negative campaigning pays off in elections. ~ George McGovern
Campaigning quotes by George McGovern
I believe I can lead this party from the front as a campaigning organization. ~ Nigel Farage
Campaigning quotes by Nigel Farage
And I have been campaigning for the past three months trying to get the Senate Judiciary Committee that has the oversight authority and responsibility to start its own public hearings. ~ Sibel Edmonds
Campaigning quotes by Sibel Edmonds
There's all this talk about Arnold Schwarzenegger. Well, you know where he is now? Visiting Mexico, which I think means that he is definitely going to run for governor. Arnold is smart. He's in Mexico campaigning with the very people who'll be living here by election time. ~ Jay Leno
Campaigning quotes by Jay Leno
I've been an Obama supporter since he announced he was campaigning. I was aware of him as a senator, but I wasn't as engaged as I probably should've been. ~ Pete Wentz
Campaigning quotes by Pete Wentz
Hillary Clinton is campaigning in Iowa, virtually going door to door to every home in Iowa. Jehovah's Witnesses finally got fed up and said, 'Get lost. Get out of here!' ~ David Letterman
Campaigning quotes by David Letterman
I should be campaigning for his release in print in a way that appeared crusading but actually wasn't quite effective enough to work. Like planting barely noticeable seeds of doubt into the prose. Subtle. I ~ Jon Ronson
Campaigning quotes by Jon Ronson
I would not ask anyone to vote for me based on my last name. I am certainly not campaigning to be president because my last name is Clinton. ~ Bernie Sanders
Campaigning quotes by Bernie Sanders
Barack Obama has brought glamour back to American politics - not the faux glamour-by-association of campaigning with movie stars or sailing with the Kennedys, but the real thing. The candidate himself is glamorous. Audiences project onto him the personal qualities and political positions they want in a president. ~ Virginia Postrel
Campaigning quotes by Virginia Postrel
The trade unions in the UK are campaigning around zero-hours contracts, which isn't about feminism, but it's a feminist issue. Women are affected by zero-hours contracts, and the recession has and is affecting women more than men. ~ Rachel Holmes
Campaigning quotes by Rachel Holmes
My father despises cats. He believes them to be Democrats. He considers them to be little mean hillary clintons covered all over with feminist legfur. Cats would have abortions, if given half a chance. Cats would have abortions for fun. Consequently our own soft sinner, a soulful snowshoe named Alice, will stay shut in the bedroom upstairs, padding back and forth on cashmere paws, campaigning for equal pay, educating me about my reproductive system, and generally plotting the downfall of all men. ~ Patricia Lockwood
Campaigning quotes by Patricia Lockwood
Samuel Taylor Coleridge was right when he claimed, 'In politics, what begins in fear usually ends up in folly.' Political activists are more inclined, though, to heed an observation from Richard Nixon: 'People react to fear, not love. They don't teach that in Sunday school, but it's true.' That principle, which guided the late president's political strategy throughout his career, is the sine qua non of contemporary political campaigning. Marketers of products and services ranging from car alarms to TV news programs have taken it to heart as well.

The short answer to why Americans harbor so many misbegotten fears is that immense power and money await those who tap into our moral insecurities and supply us with symbolic substitutes. ~ Barry Glassner
Campaigning quotes by Barry Glassner
The image of the scientist who puts the pursuit of truth before anything else has been shattered and replaced by a man on the make or a quasi-religious enthusiast who wants to prove his case at any cost. Science is becoming the tool of campaigning warfare, in which truth is the first casualty. ~ Paul Johnson
Campaigning quotes by Paul Johnson
For us political activists and candidates, the morning after any election is a mix of emotions - the personal and the immediate, the culmination of your own recent campaigning efforts; and the fortunes of your party and the success or otherwise of what you stand for and believe in. ~ Lucy Powell
Campaigning quotes by Lucy Powell
I would recommend you run as if you are running for governor in three states - Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina. There were the first three caucus or primary states. "Run and sound local, like you want to be their governor." A lot of candidates make the huge mistake of trying to run in 27 states. "Run three governor's races, and you'll have a really good shot. Focus on three. Do well in three. And the others will come. ~ Bob Woodward
Campaigning quotes by Bob Woodward
So popular is alliteration that in the 1960s it actually made a grab for political power. In the 1960s a vast radical youth movement began campaigning to do things for the sole reason that they began with the same letter. Ban the bomb. Burn your bra. Power to the people. For a moment there it seemed as though alliteration would change the world. But then the spirit of idealism faded and those who had manned the barricades went off and got jobs in marketing. ~ Mark Forsyth
Campaigning quotes by Mark Forsyth
I really am glad that the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children has had the courage to stand up and say that children should not be hit under any circumstances. I am a committed supporter of this campaigning charity for children. ~ Jerry Hall
Campaigning quotes by Jerry Hall
Kennedy did not have to run the risk of having his ideas and his words shortened and adulterated by a correspondent. This was the television era, not only in campaigning, but in holding the presidency. ~ Hugh Sidey
Campaigning quotes by Hugh Sidey
Negative campaigning is wrong. ~ Mike Pence
Campaigning quotes by Mike Pence
But he's looking for love in all the wrong places. Like fancy under catalogs
At least he knows enough not to date while he's campaigning ~ Meg Cabot
Campaigning quotes by Meg Cabot
People would ask me how I could stand the long campaigning, how I could stand being charged with the responsibilities of a great nation, one of the most powerful and difficult jobs in the world.
It wasn't any more difficult than picking cotton all day or shaking peanuts. ~ Jimmy Carter
Campaigning quotes by Jimmy Carter
I've been campaigning like anything for restoring these changes. For 27 years. I wrote a book about it, well, a portion of the book was devoted to these scenes and why they should have been in the movie. ~ William Peter Blatty
Campaigning quotes by William Peter Blatty
In seats where perhaps we don't expect to win at the next general election, the new infrastructure gives us a chance to win local council seats and to build a campaigning base which could help us to win in the future. ~ Theresa May
Campaigning quotes by Theresa May
Whether it's running for president or trying to win an Oscar, campaigning is a must and relationships are a big part of that. It's about who you know to rally behind you. ~ Ryan Kavanaugh
Campaigning quotes by Ryan Kavanaugh
And how about that Barack Obama? You know what they're saying? For the first time he's starting to slip in the polls. Barack Obama is starting to slip in the polls. Don't worry. He's got a plan. He's going to be to campaigning in Europe. ~ David Letterman
Campaigning quotes by David Letterman
Governing is one thing, campaigning is another - and the latter becomes far more pronounced in an election-year State of the Union. ~ Robert Dallek
Campaigning quotes by Robert Dallek
Only in Washington would the Republican operatives get the entire press corps ginned up over the notion that I'm going to be home campaigning instead of going to a bunch of worthless parties at a convention that's only being held to do something we all know is going to happen anyway. ~ Claire McCaskill
Campaigning quotes by Claire McCaskill
Politics colours everything, and anyone who wants change is necessarily political. As an environmental campaigner more or less since I left school in the early '90s, I have always been involved in lobbying, campaigning and pushing for changes. ~ Zac Goldsmith
Campaigning quotes by Zac Goldsmith
You campaign in poetry. You govern in prose. ~ Mario Cuomo
Campaigning quotes by Mario Cuomo
I'm a very good friend of Stephen Crabb, I had great fun campaigning with Boris Johnson on the winning side, I have great experience working with Theresa May in government on national security. I respect all of them and I hope that's very much the tone. ~ Liam Fox
Campaigning quotes by Liam Fox
There is an uncomfortable willingness among privacy campaigners to discriminate against mass surveillance conducted by the state to the exclusion of similar surveillance conducted for profit by large corporations. Partially, this is a vestigial ethic from the Californian libertarian origins of online pro-privacy campaigning. Partially, it is a symptom of the superior public relations enjoyed by Silicon Valley technology corporations, and the fact that those corporations also provide the bulk of private funding for the flagship digital privacy advocacy groups, leading to a conflict of interest.


At the individual level, many of even the most committed privacy campaigners have an unacknowledged addiction to easy-to-use, privacy-destroying amenities like Gmail, Facebook, and Apple products. As a result, privacy campaigners frequently overlook corporate surveillance abuses. When they do address the abuses of companies like Google, campaigners tend to appeal to the logic of the market, urging companies to make small concessions to user privacy in order to repair their approval ratings. There is the false assumption that market forces ensure that Silicon Valley is a natural government antagonist, and that it wants to be on the public's side - that profit-driven multinational corporations partake more of the spirit of democracy than government agencies.


Many privacy advocates justify a predominant focus on abuses by the state on the basis that th ~ Julian Assange
Campaigning quotes by Julian Assange
Christians should emphatically be campaigning for justice for the poor - but the Church is not a campaign. ~ Rowan Williams
Campaigning quotes by Rowan Williams
Perhaps the most important reason to be skeptical of government inflation numbers is that the government, like a fox campaigning to guard a hen house, has many reasons to be disingenuous. As the world's largest debtor, the Federal Government is inflation's primary beneficiary. ~ Peter Schiff
Campaigning quotes by Peter Schiff
I can see how your mother would have a point. Having a debate with a politically minded woman can be intriguing and even entertaining but to share a house with her and have her always campaigning and protesting at the dinner table," he slanted his gaze down toward me. "That could be very tiring indeed. ~ Gwenn Wright
Campaigning quotes by Gwenn Wright
Harvey Weinstein bought our film, and he's an animal. He's got us out there campaigning and everything because honestly it's a silent black-and-white film. ~ Penelope Ann Miller
Campaigning quotes by Penelope Ann Miller
For years we've been campaigning against the rule that women can't vote. That's the barrier. Once it's broken down, people will see further concessions as mere technicalities. It will be relatively easy to get the voting age lowered and other restrictions eased. ~ Ken Follett
Campaigning quotes by Ken Follett
I offer my opponents a bargain: if they will stop telling lies about us, I will stop telling the truth about them ~ Adlai E. Stevenson II
Campaigning quotes by Adlai E. Stevenson II
Solutions-oriented campaigning with a little passion and a little humor; I think that will go a long way. I think people are desperate for it. ~ Laura Ingraham
Campaigning quotes by Laura Ingraham
I want to do public speaking and cause campaigning. I want to write a book. ~ Bristol Palin
Campaigning quotes by Bristol Palin
The truth is, the 'Fortune' 500 prefer lobbying to campaigning. ~ Bradley A. Smith
Campaigning quotes by Bradley A. Smith
The point of the resurrection ... is that the present bodily life is not valueless just because it will die ... What you do with your body in the present matters because God has a great future in store for it ... What you do in the present - by painting, preaching, singing, sewing, praying, teaching, building hospitals, digging wells, campaigning for justice, writing poems, caring for the needy, loving your neighbor as yourself - will last into God's future. These activities are not simply ways of making the present life a little less beastly, a little more bearable, until the day when we leave it behind altogether (as the hymn so mistakenly puts it ... ). They are part of what we may call building for God's kingdom. ~ N. T. Wright
Campaigning quotes by N. T. Wright
I understand why the Tories will be gunning for Alastair Campbell because they fear his campaigning skills. ~ Peter Mandelson
Campaigning quotes by Peter Mandelson
My cartoons haven't been about the politics of the day or about the personalities; I'm more interested in campaigning about the issues. ~ Judy Horacek
Campaigning quotes by Judy Horacek
I read a newspaper article in May 1984 which predicted that syringes would one day be a major cause of the transmission of HIV. It was what I had been waiting for - a project that had a lot of the things that I liked: problem-solving, product design, campaigning, and being a bit of a big mouth pain-in-the-bum. ~ Marc Koska
Campaigning quotes by Marc Koska
Conservatives and companies condoned Rush Limbaugh's 2006 attacks on Michael J. Fox for campaigning about stem cell research. ~ Christine Pelosi
Campaigning quotes by Christine Pelosi
When you say politics, you conjure a whole bunch of associations: elections, campaigning, debates, fundraising. None of this exists in Russia! We are still fighting not for election victories but for having elections at all. ~ Garry Kasparov
Campaigning quotes by Garry Kasparov
First, guilt-tripping doesn't work as a campaigning strategy. If you make people feel bad about what they do, you must give them a realistic and feasible alternative. Second, pragmatism beats purism. Every time. ~ Mark Lynas
Campaigning quotes by Mark Lynas
People who keep dogs live longer on average than those who do not. This is not some kind of pro-canine campaigning fantasy. It is a simple medical fact that the calming influence of the company of a friendly pet animal reduces blood pressure and therefore
the risk of heart attack. ~ Desmond Morris
Campaigning quotes by Desmond Morris
I would not want to be a politician ... Let me tell you this: If I was campaigning, and I go against my opponent and he started attacking my character, and I leap over the table and choke him unconscious, would that help my campaign? ~ Chuck Norris
Campaigning quotes by Chuck Norris
Christians must understand the nature of the change that has occurred in our culture. No longer do the secularists just mock Christians from afar. They are now actively campaigning to indoctrinate children in an anti-God philosophy
to teach them to be secularists and atheists. ~ Ken Ham
Campaigning quotes by Ken Ham
Anybody who wants the presidency so much that he'll spend two years organizing and campaigning for it is not to be trusted with the office. ~ David Broder
Campaigning quotes by David Broder
I've been campaigning for 17 of the last 24 months. I'm ready to legislate and not campaign. ~ John Y. Campbell
Campaigning quotes by John Y. Campbell
Campaigning in Wyoming is politics at its most retail level. It's done one voter at a time. ~ Mary Cheney
Campaigning quotes by Mary Cheney
I mean, you can agree or disagree with Iraq or Afghanistan, but by the way, now the great campaigning cause out there is the absence of intervention in Syria. And then in Libya, it's partial intervention. And that doesn't really explain why some countries that have literally nothing to do with the interventions in the Middle East end up getting targeted. ~ Tony Blair
Campaigning quotes by Tony Blair
By all appearances, Hillary made a deal with herself over Bill's philandering. She's a private person who hates campaigning, so her marriage to a charismatic "people person" in Bill created a dynamic partnership. ~ Anne Michaud
Campaigning quotes by Anne  Michaud
John F. Kennedy went to bed at 3:30 in the morning on November 9, 1960, uncertain whether he had defeated Richard Nixon for the presidency. He thought he had won, but six states hung in the balance, and after months of exhaustive campaigning, he was too tired to stay awake any longer. ~ Robert Dallek
Campaigning quotes by Robert Dallek
I'd like the campaigning to be about all the things they're not going to do. Just tell me what you're not going do! Don't tell me what you're going to do. Just say "I'd really like to do solar energy but I'm not going to be able to. I really want to dig holes everywhere in the country but I really won't be able to do it because people seem to think that maybe my water will be screwed up." ~ Lewis Black
Campaigning quotes by Lewis Black
I don't want to be polite. I don't think campaigning is polite. That's a disingenuous effort. ~ Carl Paladino
Campaigning quotes by Carl Paladino
I believe in campaigning for health care, not warfare. ~ Mimi Kennedy
Campaigning quotes by Mimi Kennedy
Baseball is our national pastime, that is if you discount political campaigning. ~ Ronald Reagan
Campaigning quotes by Ronald Reagan
While campaigning, I got to know many high-school teachers, and let me say that the good ones are the unsung heroes of our society, and the bad ones are the gravediggers. ~ Gore Vidal
Campaigning quotes by Gore Vidal
Now I am dedicating that life to campaigning against the death penalty and raising awareness about human rights. ~ Hafez Ibrahim
Campaigning quotes by Hafez Ibrahim
When people at dinner parties ask me how I can possibly operate in the current political environment, with all the negative campaigning and personal attacks, I may mention Nelson Mandela, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, or some guy in a Chinese or Egyptian prison somewhere. In truth, being called names is not such a bad deal. ~ Barack Obama
Campaigning quotes by Barack Obama
For me, campaigning and good business is also about putting forward solutions, not just opposing destructive practices or human rights abuses. ~ Anita Roddick
Campaigning quotes by Anita Roddick
Barack and I have been in the public eye for many years now, and we've developed a thick skin along the way. When you're out campaigning, there will always be criticism. I just take it in stride, and at the end of the day, I know that it comes with the territory. ~ Michelle Obama
Campaigning quotes by Michelle Obama
Barack Obama is uniquely qualified to speak about the knowledge, experience and temperament that the presidency requires. And I know he is raring to get out there and start campaigning and I really look forward to campaigning with him. ~ Hillary Clinton
Campaigning quotes by Hillary Clinton
Biologists have determined brookies to be indicators of ecosystem health and have been recently campaigning to get the word out. If brookies inhabit a stream, the odds are good that the waterway is in excellent condition. ~ Joseph Monninger
Campaigning quotes by Joseph Monninger
We love the blather and boast, the charge and counter-charge of campaigning. Governing is a tougher deal. ~ Hugh Sidey
Campaigning quotes by Hugh Sidey
