“Our questions, which began politely, were politely ignored.”
“Decent people should ignore politics, if only they could be confident that politics would ignore them”
“So, ignorant we are. But we're not stupid. Indeed...remaining ignorant about politics and our government is a perfectly rational response to the government we have. The question isn't what we know. The question is what we're capable of knowing, and doing, if we have the right incentives, and the right opportunity.”
“Politics in a literary work, is like a gun shot in the middle of a concert, something vulgar, and however, something which is impossible to ignore.”
“Or they'll talk about fear, which we used to call politics- job politics, social politics, government politics”
“A question is a polite way of demanding something.”
