But I'm not interested in politics. I lose interest the microsecond it ceases to be emotional, when something becomes a political movement. What I'm interested in is emotions.

I ended up in Parliament and soon discovered that emotion really doesn't have any place in politics. It's a much more intricate and complicated game, and I just didn't know how to play it.

You can come to a political position from an emotional place.

I don't think you can work on feelings in politics, apart from anything else, political change can come very unexpectedly, sometimes overnight when you least expect it.

I know politics is emotionally brutal; I've already had experience with the reality of smear campaigns, so I understand there will not be a path of roses laid before me.

Politics is tricky for me. For most of my life, I didn't think it applied to me.

Emotion is primarily about nothing and much of it remains about nothing to the end.

Emotions have no place in business, unless you do business with them.

I don't display emotions. I have every feeling that everyone else has, but I've developed ways to suppress them. Anger is one of my most comfortable feelings.

I'm just not very comfortable talking about my emotions on a normal, day-to-day basis.
