Weber


“To take a stand, to be passionate--ira et studium--is the politician's element, and above all the element of
the political leader”.
I chose this quote because the last portion of the quote intrigued me.  “Above all the element of the political leader.” This part of the quote is seemed to be as if only politicians can be leaders and responsible for truth, but truth comes with experience and lies lead to destruction of the soul.  But one can adapt to their lies and the wellbeing of only themselves, other than the responsibility of what comes with the truth.  “To take a stand” is to believe in yourself and your truth. “to be passionate” is to care for others as well as family and believe in truth, not just fabrications of truth.
