I stay out of politics because if I begin thinking too much about politics, I'll probably... drop writing children's books and become a political cartoonist again.

I've always wanted to be my own person and stand by the things I believe in and I thought I might lose that independence if I ran for political office.

My desire is to be as independent as I can be, as long as I can be, subject to being effective.

I don't write political plays in the sense that I'm writing essays that are kind of disguised as plays. I would really defy anyone to watch any of my plays and say 'Well, here's the point.'

I do not want to be a pawn in a political campaign.

I got into acting to avoid politics of any sort so I could remain in a fantasy world.
