I am not a witchdoctor.

I'm not President Bush

Politics should make a thief, a roué, and a pessimist of anyone but I don't believe I am any of them...

If people want go-along, get-along politics, I am not their guy.

I am not now, nor have I ever been, a member of the demigodic party.

I cannot become another Sir Robert Peel in my Party.

But what I have written does not follow some party-line. In particular, I am anything but a “nationalist”... Indeed, I already expressed my scepticism of all nationalisms as far back as 1991, in my book Ayodhya and After.

See you, my dear doctor, me, I am not one to rely upon the expert procedure. It is the psychology I seek, not the fingerprint or the cigarette ash.

I am not called Cugel the Clever for nothing.

I'm not the kind of person you think I am,
I'm not the anti-Christ, or the iron man.

If anything is certain, it is that I myself am not a Marxist

I have not become the King's First Minister in order to preside over the liquidation of the British Empire.

I am not a fascist. Fascists are shopkeepers, I am a Nazi.

I can't believe I'm saying I'm a politician.
