I really hate bombastic preachers, prancing before great crowds, coopting the suffering of a people to the percussion of applause.
Everything said is such a statement of the obvious that it just comes across as self-aggrandising activism, incapable of affecting meaningful change.
Give me the quiet piety of the self-effacing sage anytime, humbled by a life of service. Let me follow those whose actions speak far louder than words. I have no time for bombastic preachers.
