The right to a trial is a core principle of the American legal system. Depriving Americans of these essential liberties undermines the Constitution while doing nothing to strengthen our national security.

Be calm in arguing for fierceness makes error a fault, and truth discourtesy.

George Herbert

God loves you even on your blackest days, and He will always, be there to guide you home. All you have to do is look for the light of His love.

Lauren Myracle

Thomas Sowell

There are people who want to make men's lives more difficult for no other reason than the chance it provides them afterwards to offer their prescription for alleviating life their Christianity, for instance.

Friedrich Nietzsche

If you have dreams it is your responsibility to make them happen.

Bel Pesce

The connection between dress and war is not far to seek your finest clothes are those you wear as soldiers.

Virginia Woolf
