We are a studying nation. Scholarship from science is important to the whole world and those people need to be able to be safe and secure in what they do.

You talked about national identity cards and the terrorism bill. We have made a government that has grown used to viewing us as subjects, has grown used to seeing its role as commanding us.

We don't need a nation that has national identity cards.

Government, which does not and did not grant us our rights, must not now seek to deny them by using fear as its justification.

Doctrines provide an architecture for both Republican and Democrat presidents to carry out policies.

I don't think the only place to fight for freedom is in the halls of Congress.

I'm a big supporter of immigration.

It's insanity for a party that believes in freedom to allow some Republicans to seize an agenda that is totally alien to the agenda that was established in the election.

Yes, many immigrants cherish the value of choice and opportunity and the value of education more than 7th or 8th generation Americans.

The utter incompetence of the U.N. is literally incomprehensible.

Being American is not a matter of birth. We must practice it every day, lest we become something else.

Falling in love is more than infatuation. It is the need to feel whole, to feel safe, to be healed, to join together with someone, heart and soul.

Don't disparage ignorance. If it weren't for ignorance we wouldn't have anything to learn.

If I live...I will live unafraid...I will live so all can see, I am not ashamed of who I am or what I'm designed to be!"-The Great Mephisto

There can be no greater act of kindness than to help others when your own world has been destroyed.

I've stuck by being modest, honest and humble, because I think you'll get more appreciated that way and we all want to be appreciated in this world.

Beauty is only skin deep; ugliness goes all the way through.

Religion will never show the way.

I was greatly affected by a guy named Rob Briner, who died about five years ago, who wrote a book called "Roaring Lambs", which is a book on how to be salt and light in the secular community.

When I think I've made an error, it can cause me a sleepless night. But that only happens rarely.

That's always been my test for what makes a story: is this something journalists would gossip with each other about?
