Political ideology can corrupt the mind, and science.

I understand that, for some, everything is political.

Politics is the science of urgencies.

All partisan movements add to the fullness of our understanding of society as a whole. They never detract; or, in any case, one must not allow them to do so. Experience adds to experience.

But I think it's quite clear in my work that my orientation isn't political or doesn't come out of modern politics.

Politics is not an exact science.

I don't think my intelligence is naturally analytic or political.

There is absolutely no point in not being a populist. What I feel emboldened to do is to take something which is a minority interest and make it accessible without dumbing it down. I'm such an enthusiast for peculiar things, things that are perhaps a bit avant-garde, and try and involve everyone.

Political people don't solve stuff - not really. Political people are like guys in pop music.

An educated people can be easily governed.
