The coronation is a symbol of power, but it’s not a symbol for us the people. It’s a symbol for that person, who is a human, to become a higher being and become one with God.

I’ve been arrested three times. I don’t like getting arrested, but it’s not so bad when it’s an organized form of nonviolent disobedience. It’s something appealing to a higher law.
