Quote by John Kenneth Galbraith
Politics is the art of choosing between the disastrous and the unpalatable.
Summary
This quote suggests that in politics, the choices available often lack desirable options. Politicians must make decisions based on the options they have, even if those choices are difficult, disliked, or have potentially negative consequences. It reflects the reality that in politics, decision-making may often involve compromising and making tough decisions between options that may not be perfect but rather fall on a spectrum of unfavorable outcomes.
