If you want to include Gandhi as a politician
It's not a question of what I want, Pat. It is simply a fact. He was a member of the Indian nationalist movement, and spent around seven years in total, in jail, as a direct result of political activity. Is it not a sad thing, when Honest men are put in jail?

Was Jesus a politician?
If he existed, then yes. If not, then a politician invented him! - Is it not a sad thing that Honest men are crucified, simply for trying to help others?

People look after the things they have affection for. It is thus essential that we learn to have affection for the planet that sustains us.

"The sense of threat from every quarter of what is known as the Establishment – which is to say, of modern civilization – is not altogether a put-on or an act for many of these young folk, but an actual condition of soul. The break-off is real, and what is being bombed and blown up outside are actual symbols of interior fears." - Joseph Campbell
