Which came first, the music or the politics? Patti Smith: As a child I was attracted to people [who] helped others, to our spiritual leaders and the work of Albert Schweitzer. So I would say its not really politics that attracted me; I am not really politically oriented. Rather, it is humanistic issues, whether coming from the Dalai Lama, or environmental issues or the late pope against war. Ralph Naders activism, in every sense of the word, is what attracts me. I gravitate towards people and ideology that is earth- and people-friendly.
