Hurtling the Pentagon into an unprecedented budgetary meltdown is horrifically irresponsible. Obama doesn't care. This is war - not against the Taliban, but war against the GOP. He has Republicans on the ropes, and that's a victory he savors and desires - unlike Afghanistan, where he seems only to want to turn tail.

As much as I would love to be a person that goes to parties and has a couple of drinks and has a nice time, that doesn't work for me. I'd just rather sit at home and read, or go out to dinner with someone, or talk to someone I love, or talk to somebody that makes me laugh.

Daniel Radcliffe

I respect only those who resist me, but I cannot tolerate them.

Charles de Gaulle

Jesus might have said, I became man for you. If you do not become God for me, you wrong me.

Meister Eckhart

Among the smaller duties of life I hardly know any one more important than that of not praising where praise is not due.

Sydney Smith

Politics gets me out of bed in the morning It's what really interests me. I'm a competitor, but I also feel like I'm contributing, whether it's working on health-care policy in the White House or out here in Chicago.

Stephanie Cutter

[God] disciplines us for our good, that we may share His holiness.

Scott Hahn

My father died when I was young and I was raised by my grandmother, Emma Klonjlaleh Brown. We could afford to eat chicken just once a year, on Christmas.

George Weah

Even under the best of circumstances, the road back from war is difficult.

Ron Wyden

Do not worry about your problems with mathematics, I assure you mine are far greater.

Albert Einstein

I want to expand my cuisine to this country. I love America. I have been here 22 years.

Masaharu Morimoto

The American people I talk to don't spend every moment thinking, 'How can I tax my neighbor more than they're being taxed?' They say, 'How can I get a good job? How can my kids get good jobs? How can seniors have a confidence in their future when they know that Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid are bankrupt?'

Mitt Romney

Now all the knowledge and wisdom that is in creatures, whether angels or men, is nothing else but a participation of that one eternal, immutable and increased wisdom of God, or several signatures of that one archetypal seal, or like so many multiplied reflections of one and the same face, made in several glasses, whereof some are clearer, some obscurer, some standing nearer, some further off.
