Theodore Roosevelt
All the resources we need are in the mind

Joseph Chilton Pearce
A man who is good enough to shed his blood for his country is good enough to be given a square deal afterwards. More than that no man is entitled to, and less than that no man shall have.
This whole head of the home thing has been blown way out of proportion. Some guys just take it way too far. Some parents take it way too far. Yet children need guidance. They need a parent to help and guide them. They also need a friend. They need a confidant.

The pacifist is as surely a traitor to his country and to humanity as is the most brutal wrongdoer.
You don't play against opponents, you play against the game of basketball.
Bobby Knight
Peace is normally a great good, and normally it coincides with righteousness, but it is righteousness and not peace which should bind the conscience of a nation as it should bind the conscience of an individual; and neither a nation nor an individual can surrender conscience to another's keeping.
The Kingdom of Heaven is not a place, but a state of mind.
John Burroughs
The old parties are husks, with no real soul within either, divided on artificial lines, boss-ridden and privilege-controlled, each a jumble of incongruous elements, and neither daring to speak out wisely and fearlessly on what should be said on the vital issues of the day.
You get to actually see the music video on the TV in the pilot and we have the soundtrack playing at this big party. I thought that was sort of a cool moment, to actually have the A-Ha video is pretty cool.
Will Estes
When they call the roll in the Senate, the senators do not know whether to answer present or not guilty.
The most successful politician is he who says what everybody is thinking most often and in the loudest voice.
There were a few 6th form girls that I got with when I was I the 6th form, they were really nice, so that was cool.
Charlie Simpson
Willful sterility is, from the standpoint of the nation, from the standpoint of the human race, the one sin for which the penalty is national death, race death; a sin for which there is no atonement. No man, no woman, can shirk the primary duties of life, whether for love of ease and pleasure, or for any other cause, and retain his or her self-respect.
No people is wholly civilized where a distinction is drawn between stealing an office and stealing a purse.
All soldiers who serve their country and put their lives at risk need to know that if something happens to them, their families will be well taken care of. That's the bond we have with our military men and women and their families.
Jeff Sessions

Benjamin Netanyahu
The men and women who have the right ideals... are those who have the courage to strive for the happiness which comes only with labor and effort and self-sacrifice, and those whose joy in life springs in part from power of work and sense of duty.
We certainly want those at the top to do well, but if you base your entire presidency and your entire economic platform on helping them do even better, you're missing what makes the economy tick. Because not everyone has been as fortunate as Mitt Romney, you cannot base your whole approach on a life experience as rarified as his.
Charles Schumer
Usually I write about what I care about, which is a weakness but I think also a strength.
Mickey Kaus
Some people say it might be good for your career to die and then come back again. I have died many ways, car crashes, motorcycle crashes, etc. But, I am still alive.
Mark-Paul Gosselaar
I would have to say the person with whom I am most in love is definitely my son, Everly Bear. Although I'm his dad, I'm also his friend.
Anthony Kiedis
Reading isn't good for a ballplayer. Not good for his eyes. If my eyes went bad even a little bit I couldn't hit home runs. So I gave up reading.
Babe Ruth
Art is not a thing it is a way.
Elbert Hubbard
War makes strange giant creatures out of us little routine men who inhabit the earth.
Ernie Pyle

Tom Jenkinson
I never blame myself when I'm not hitting. I just blame the bat and if it keeps up, I change bats. After all, if I know it isn't my fault that I'm not hitting, how can I get mad at myself?
Yogi Berra
The basic problem is that web 2.0 tools are not supportive of democracy by design. They are tools designed to gather spy-agency-like data in a seductive way, first and foremost, but as a side effect they tend to provide software support for mob-like phenomena.
Jaron Lanier
Before a group can enter the open society, it must first close ranks.
Stokely Carmichael
