About This Quote
The person speaking was very against working in a public office, especially in the government because he was scared of getting stuck in a "pulpit" or "soapbox". His reluctance to move into a pulpit or soapbox is because he was not good at it. The reason the quote went on to say "Anyway" was because he saw that he did not want to work in the government but everything would not change even if he did not want to.
