Politics means implementation of the best ideas for the society in the path of wellbeing and progress. This is the approach that gave the world, leaders of glorious characters such as Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr., Subhas Chandra Bose (the actual man behind India’s Independence), Vasil Levski (the man who liberated Bulgaria from the Ottoman oppression), Nelson Mandela and many more. These people were technically politicians too, but unlike the majority of the politicians ofmodern society, their approach to politics was what it should be in a real system of politics.

About This Quote

This quote demonstrates that politics does not need to be a cut and dry science. Because, while we need to implement good public policy, we also need to be willing to change our course of action when we see that it is not working. This approach, called the pragmatist ideology, was popularized by John Dewey and other philosophers in the early 20th century.
