Citat - Definition av begreppet 'politik'

Politics can neither be avoided
nor positively embraced;
these impossible alternatives
are superficially different ways of grasping the political,
of holding it in one’s hand,
whereas properly understood,
the political
– the inescapability of partisan, angled seeing –
is what always already grasps us
