I don’t really like politics that much. And I like the order and simplicity of sports. They have an ending. You can argue with your friends about it, but in the end you still like sports. I almost love the fantasy world of sports more than the real world.
Politics
I think there are lots of ways to exercise ambition and accomplish things using leadership without going into elected politics. So, categorically, I have no intention of going into elected politics. None.

I think, under President Obama, who was a really bright guy – I didn't agree with a lot of his politics – but we got to the point internationally where our friends didn't trust us. They were confused. And our enemies didn't quite respect us.

Politics is not the art of the possible. It consists in choosing between the disastrous and the unpalatable.

Politics is politics; art is art. If you play a political role, you have to stop being an artist.
