This is a government takeover of our healthcare system. It is the government basically running the entire healthcare system, turning large insurers into de facto public utilities, depriving people of choice, depriving people of options, raising people's prices, raising taxes when we need new jobs.

Voters must have faith in the electoral process for our democracy to succeed.

Blanche Lincoln

It is not enough to succeed, others must fail.

The ordinary man is involved in action, the hero acts. An immense difference.

Henry Miller

For someone who'e smarter than a supercomputer, sometimes you're a real idiot.

Gordon Korman

Through all the employments of life each neighbor abuses his brother; whore and rogue they call husband and wife: All professions be-rogue one another.

John Gay

The thing we fear we bring to pass.

Elbert Hubbard

Life is like a taxi. The meter just keeps a-ticking whether you are getting somewhere or just standing still.

Lou Erickson

The thing that would astonish anyone coming for the first time into the service quarters of a hotel would be the fearful noise and disorder during rush hours. It is something so different from the steady work in a shop or a factory that it looks at first sight like mere bad management. But it is really quite unavoidable...by its nature it comes in rushes and cannot be economized. You cannot, for instance, grill a steak two hours before it is wanted; you have to wait till the last moment, by which time a mass of other work has accumulated, and then to do it all together, in frantic haste. The result is that at meal-times everyone is doing two men's work, which is impossible without noise and quarreling. Indeed the quarrels are a necessary part of the process, for the pace would never be kept up if everyone did not accuse everyone else of idling. It was for this reason that during rush hours the whole staff cursed like demons.

George Orwell, Down and Out in P

What's in front of you is a whole world of experiences beyond your imagination. Put yourself, and your growth and development, first.

Phylicia Rashad

I am more afraid of an army of 100 sheep led by a lion than an army of 100 lions led by a sheep.
