As long as we ask politicians to save us, they will exploit us.
As long as we focus on differences rather than common interests, there will be resentment and envy.
As long as we confront each other instead of understand each other, there will be suspicion and anger.
As long as we insist on winner-take-all politics, we will all be losers.
“Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.” – Leo Tolstoy
Short, sweet, and right on the mark.
