When I became leader, I made very clear I was not going to choose the easy life. I have always taken risks. I dont like comfort-zone politics. – Nick Clegg
Liberalism is a really old British tradition and it has a completely different attitude towards the individual and the relationship between the individual and the state than the collectivist response of Labour, and particularly Old Labour, does. – Nick Clegg
One thing Ive very quickly learned is that if you wake up every morning worrying about whats in the press, you would go completely and utterly potty. – Nick Clegg
I dont want to clip on the armour every morning. Ive seen some politicians do this and they get a bit mangled and bitter. I just refuse to do that. I refuse to be angry or bitter or complain, and I remain open. I may sometimes be a bit too open but Im not going to change that one bit. – Nick Clegg
