“I take small interest in politics,” he said. “The subject repels me.”

Just because you do not take an interest in politics doesn't mean politics won't take an interest in you.
Pericles
The inquiring subject must be in one of two situations: either he must in faith be convinced of the truth of Christianity and his own relation to it, in which case all the rest cannot possibly be of infinite interest, since faith is precisely the infinite interest in Christianity and any other interest easily becomes a temptation; or he is not in a relationship of faith but is objectively in a relationship of observation and as such is not infinitely interested in deciding the question.
Soren Aabye Kierkegaard
The human interest, and the natural interest, and the spiritual interest of this planet need to begin to take a priority over the corporate interest, the military interest, and the materialistic interests.
Michael Franti
When a thing ceases to be a subject of controversy, it ceases to be a subject of interest.
