“All deeper interest in politics presupposes a touch of illiteracy. To adopt a real political party line you have to be capable of simplifying all questions; you must teach yourself to believe that all misery is due either to the communists or the fascists or parliamentarianism or the Jews or the bankers or the vegetarians or whatever. If you can't oversimplify you have no political clout.” Politics Observation Author:Jens Bjorneboe
