The thing I enjoyed most were visits from children. They did not want public office.

Summary

This quote suggests that the speaker found great pleasure in interactions with children as they did not possess any political ambitions or aspirations for public power. The innocence and genuine nature of children made these visits enjoyable for the speaker, who perhaps longed for a break from the complexities and insincerities often associated with politics. These interactions may have provided a respite from the adult world and provided the speaker with a sense of simplicity and genuine connection.
