Gnarr (2014)
“Do you have to be a scientist to become interested in science? Do you have to know everything about nature to take pleasure in it? No. And it’s no different with politics. You don’t need to be a politician to have the right to participate in political life. You don’t need special training or any special skills. You don’t even need to be able to get on well with other people. Each of us has the right to become involved in politics just because we feel like it. If I book a trip to Rome, I don’t h...ave to know everything about the history of Italy or the culture of the ancient Romans. I can just go there to enjoy the beautiful weather.
I’m often asked whether being mayor is difficult. The question shows the kind of image we have of politics and politicians—and thus how easily we fall into a vicious circle: Politics is difficult and therefore only certain people can be politicians. People who can think fast and talk fast, people who are robust and can stand the heat. A bit like superheroes.MoreLess
