Quote

I feel that if I am freed of the burden of politics, then I can do more, and I can take more unpopular decisions.

Ideas are great arrows, but there has to be a bow. And politics is the bow of idealism.

I feel that if I am freed of the burden of politics, then I can do more and I can take more unpopular decisions. I can have as my guidance for decision whatever is right, not whatever is popular.

I think that what I'm doing is right. And election-year politics, which intensifies everything, is not going to drive me off that course.

I am not averse to politics, but that does not mean that I am going to join politics.

Politics is a noble activity. We should revalue it, practise it with vocation and a dedication that requires testimony, martyrdom, that is to die for the common good.

But I don't need to use politics as a way of making money.

I haven't been in politics too long so that's a good thing.

Going into politics is something people have asked me about forever.

I know I should have never got into politics. And I've learned my lesson. No more politics.
