Whether at work, at home or in public, we have been trained to believe that who we are at the core of our being is often unacceptable. As a result, we work diligently to live up to - and sometimes down to - what others have made us out to be, whether or not it is an accurate reflection of who we are.

Whilst it is perfectly in order to constructively criticize public officers’ official actions and policies, it is absolutely wrong to make judgments about people’s characters to the extent of using foul language to describe them without having personal interactions with them.

Public officers must always bear in mind the cliche that power is transient. They have limited time to make their modest contributions and bow out for others to continue. No one can annex public office as a personal chattel. That’s why I recoil from the razzmatazz of public office.

It is very intriguing that it is the same set of people, including some members of the public, who always seek to hold public officers accountable (and who are always quick to cry ‘crucify him’) that also put them under pressure to contribute financially to everything they do.

The anxiety of some members of the public at this time is understandable and so are their criticisms. Matters of life/health should top the agenda of government. Therefore the criticisms must be taken in good faith and government will continue to weigh all of them to respond appropriately.

We want to be inclusive. We want to have our shareholders, our employees, our customers, whether they are Democrat, Republican, Green or Libertarian, to feel comfortable with how we're doing business. And so that tends to be apolitical. People say, 'No, no, I just simply shouldn't get involved in politics.'

So, I think it has to do with the product and what you take to the public. If they like it, they're going to come see you, and if they don't, and if you're kind of getting out of the trendy line of things, then they won't come see you.

Broadway is such a diverse community. Everybody knows how I believe, and everyone believes, and it's not a big deal. But in Hollywood, if you talk about politics - especially if you're a Republican - or spirituality, it's just not something people want to hear about.
