"The worst illiterate is the political illiterate. He does not see, does not speak, and does not participate in political events. He does not know that that the cost of living, the price of rice, of fish, of flour, of rent, of shoes or medicine, depends on political decisions. The political illiterate is such as ass that he is proud and puffs out his chest, saying that he hates politics. He does not know, the imbecile, that from his political ignorance is born the prostitute, the abandoned minor, the thief, and the worst of all these bandits, the corrupt politician and the lackey of national and multinational corporations."
- Bertold Brecht
