## Quotes

* I believe the university definition of politics is accurate when it describes it as "a way of sharing power and scarce resources." Harold Lasswell also famously defined politics as the art of "who gets what, when, and how." This highlights that, whether or not we are directly involved in formal or public political spheres, issues like power, resource distribution, equity, and justice are relevant to everyone. They affect us all in some way.
* Yes, I have been actively involved in national politics. I served as the Woman Member of Parliament for Rakai District from 1996 to 2006, and during that time, I also held the position of Minister of State for Internal Affairs from 1998 to 2003.
* I don't agree with the idea that politics is inherently a "dirty game." Rather, it's the people involved who determine whether it remains "clean" or becomes "dirty." I once heard an illustration that I think captures this idea well: Politics is like water. You can add mud to it, making it dirty, or you can keep it clear and use it for good. Ultimately, politics itself is neutral; it's up to us, the participants, to decide whether to keep it clean or let it become polluted.
* I have to admit, before I got involved in politics, I too shared the common belief that politics itself was inherently dirty. To me, this meant that anyone who entered politics was bound to engage in corruption, dishonesty, and compromise. This belief often leads people to think that people of faith should avoid public life altogether. However, when I eventually joined, I discovered something different. While it's true that many individuals act according to that cynical view of politics, I found that, with God's guidance, it's entirely possible to participate in politics without resorting to the "dirty" aspects that many associate with it.

# Edwin Booth

Edwin Booth (13 November 1833 – 7 June 1893) was an American actor, famous for his Shakespearian roles.

## Quotes

* ... You should see the crowds of idle gapers that throng the depots at my arrival, and the swarms of females (they can't be called "ladies") that crowd the hotel halls and parlors in every place. It is unpleasant for me, who hate notoriety and publicity. They point at and touch me, exclaiming to one another, "That 's him!" "That 's Booth!" To-day they tried to get on the carriage that brought me to the hotel. Policemen had to keep the crowds back for me to pass through. I suppose they mean it all in kindness, but it is very disagreeable.
** letter to his daughter, 27 February 1876, quoted in Edwin Booth; recollections by his daughter Edwina Booth Grossman, and letters to her and to his friends, 1902, p. 46
* I cannot grieve at death. It seems to me the greatest boon the Almighty has granted us. Consequently I cannot appreciated the grief of those who mourn the loss of loved ones, particularly if they go early from this hell of misery to which we have been doomed.
** letter to William Winter, 23 April 1886, quoted in Life and art of Edwin Booth, pp. 306–307
* Time has not grown so very old since the most prominent members of our profession, though admired by the public eye, and lauded by its tongue, were socially, viewed askance, and regarded as "merely players."

## About Edwin Booth

* Edwin Booth had a very sweet character and a charming manner at rehearsals, which he detested. I think, after Hamlet, his Bertuccio in the " Fool's Revenge " was his finest representation.

* I just refuse to accept that this -- this thing: Like, January 6th if Democrats win, fireside chat if Republicans win -- is the way things just are gonna work now. I don't accept the idea that there's one set of rules for him and another for everyone else. We can't accept a status quo in our elections where, if one side wins, they have to scratch and claw to withstand the lies and the legal challenges and the violent mobs. And if the other side is successful, and they're invited to measure the drapes and gather around the fireplace. I mean, yes, the nature of preserving democracy and institutions and norms is that you uphold them, even for people like Donald Trump who have tried to tear them down, I get that. But I'm just saying that this thing, this, is not a sustainable equilibrium. One side upholds liberal democratic norms, the other subverts and tries to destroy them. It's gonna break, one way or the other. I don't know how it ends up or who wins, but that central struggle didn't dissolve because the insurrectionist won more votes this time.

### Voyage of the "Endeavour" (1768–1771)

* From what I have said of the Natives of New-Holland they may appear to some to be the most wretched people upon Earth, but in reality they are far more happier than we Europeans; being wholly unacquainted not only with the superfluous but the necessary Conveniences so much sought after in Europe, they are happy in not knowing the use of them. They live in a Tranquillity which is not disturb'd by the Inequality of Condition: The Earth and sea of their own accord furnishes them with all things necessary for life, they covet not Magnificent Houses, Household-stuff &c., they live in a warm and fine Climate and enjoy a very wholesome Air. ... In short they seem'd to set no Value upon any thing we gave them, nor would they ever part with any thing of their own for any one article we could offer them; this in my opinion argues that they think themselves provided with all the necessarys of Life and that they have no superfluities.

## Quotes about John Joseph Conroy

* He built the beautiful St. Joseph's Church in the city of Albany, and established a home for the aged in charge of the Little Sisters of the Poor, and orphanages under the care of the Sisters of Charity and Christian Brothers in the same city. The secular clergy still proving inadequate for the growing and insistent needs of the ministry, he encouraged the Augustinian Fathers and the Minor Conventuals to cast their lot with the diocese. He secured the future of Catholic schools by establishing the celebrated convent of the Sacred Heart at Kenwood.
** John Walsh, Diocese of Albany Catholic Encyclopedia (1913)
