“The fools of today's politics keep dividing the lands into more and more pieces, thinking that it would bring their people security, whereas the reality is, such an act only brings insecurity, as it leads to nothing but an increasing amount of conflicts. Division can’t bring peace and security, only assimilation can.”

“Beyond Politics (The Sonnet) Changing leadership, changing party, These ain’t change, but same old tribalism. Changing the shape and name of tribalism, Is not end of tribalism, but recurring tribalism. If you really want to bring actual change, Aim for a non-tribal society, one of nonsectarianism. Replacing one sect with another may feel like change, But it's just another form of unchanging divisionism. Real change is when civic duty turns common sanity, When there's no community service, only life and living. The supreme policy is that of individual accountability, True order comes through collectivity, not policing. Stop relying on politicians for every little trouble. And the world will be a place without political turmoil.”

“The other thing I think we learned on Tuesday (election day) is that this is an electorate that is not particularly generous in doling out the credit for things. I think this goes beyond politics, bur clearly in the case of politics where the voters are now conditioned to look for the worst in everyone and really to disbelieve that there's very much good in anyone. It's hard to be a politician under those circumstances, but, again, I think this mood of looking for the worst in everyone extends beyond the political world. (from the book The NPR Interviews 1995, edited by Robert Siegel)”
