I have always been interested in politics. I was in the student union before, very active.

Idealism is the despot of thought, just as politics is the despot of will.

All along we find that social life - religion, politics, art - reflects the stages reached in the development of the knowledge of self; it shows the social uses made of this knowledge.

Neither science, nor the politics in power, nor the mass media, nor business, nor the law nor even the military are in a position to define or control risks rationally.

If it wasn't for what goes on in the world of politics, we wouldn't really have much of a show.
