Everything is politics.

I call it people-to-people politics and that's what politics should be about, reaching out and helping one another and touching one another about what we're going to do.

We have tended in politics in this country to concentrate on the domestic, on the here and now - the 'what's in it for me'.

Politics feels, on what I have seen of it, like joining a tribe, and a lot of it is about unspoken ways of behaving.

As soon as you start writing about how human beings interact with each other socially, you're into politics, aren't you?

Politics, after all, is largely about power. And power goes to the core of our issues of control and narcissism and need to be right and tendency to divide the human race into 'us' vs. 'them.'

Politics is a contact sport.

I don't know much about politics, and I don't want to know. That's why I rarely involve myself in politics.
