NADER ON BURNOUT


I spoke with Nader briefly after the film, and asked him if he'd ever
experienced burnout from all the activism and attacks he's endured.
"Burn-what?" he said, looking at me quizzically. And he wasn't being
funny, either. "Burnout," I laughed.

"How do you deal with it?"

"Oh, burnout," he said. "No, I've never had it. I mean, what's the
alternative to activism? Surrender. That's not an option, you know?"
