The war in Iraq was unwinnable.

I've waffled before. I'll waffle again.

I still want to be the candidate for guys with Confederate flags in their pickup trucks.

I was hoping to get a reception like this, I'd just hoped that it would be on Thursday night instead of Tuesday night.

I'm a committed Christian. I worship in my own way. That's my business. That's not the business of the pharisees who are going to preach to me about what I do and then do something else.

I'm just deeply disappointed that once again we may have to settle for the lesser of two evils.

We know that no one person can succeed unless everybody else succeeds.

I think with a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court, you can't play, you know, hide the salami, or whatever it's called.

Tom DeLay ought to go back to Houston where he can serve his jail sentence.

I think the recovery hasn't been stronger because the hole that was dug for President Obama by the Bush administration was far worse than anybody could imagine, first of all.

The Democratic Party, all the candidates from Washington, they all know each other, they all move in the same circles, and what I'm doing is breaking into the country club.

A person who falsely believes he or she is knowledgeable will not seek out clarification of his or her beliefs, but rather rely on his or her ignorant position.

Morality and legality have nothing to do with one another. I'm more than fine with breaking a law if it disagrees with my values and morals.

Legal dialogue is awesome, but you can't ad lib. It's much more fun to be looser and say things like, 'Can I work in a Han Solo reference?' I'm a 'Star Wars' freak.

A new civilization is emerging in our lives, and blind men everywhere are trying to suppress it.

Thinking too little about things or thinking too much both make us obstinate and fanatical.

Good humor is the sunshine of the mind.

You can't teach the old maestro a new tune.

To be a writer you should read, write and talk to people, hear their knowledge, hear their problems. Be a good listener. The rest will come.

There are writers who do start doing the same thing again and again and almost inevitably fall into self-parody.

Memory cannot exist without endurance of the things perceived, and the thing perceived cannot remain where it has never been.
