There might be some serious fun in politics.

Never turn your back on fear. It should always be in front of you, like a thing that might have to be killed.

All my life, my heart has sought a thing I cannot name. Remembered line from a long- forgotten poem

A man has to BE something; he has to matter.

Not everybody is comfortable with the idea that politics is a guilty addiction. But it is.

Life is beautiful and living is pain.

I believe the Republicans have never thought that democracy was anything but a tribal myth.
