#Making Peace Quotes

“Stay alive, stay active, and get as much practice as you can.”
“When we got organized as a country and we wrote a fairly radical Constitution with a radical Bill of Rights, giving a radical amount of individual freedom to Americans ... And so a lot of people say there's too much personal freedom. When personal freedom's being abused, you have to move to limit it. That's what we did in the announcement I made last weekend on the public housing projects, about how we're going to have weapon sweeps and more things like that to try to make people safer in their communities.”
“I surround myself with inspirational quotations.”

“I feel about mothers the way I feel about dimples: because I do not have one myself, I notice everyone who does.”

“I think you can't be really posh and be an interesting actor. I'm a bit of a posh rough.”
“Complacency will be the architecture of your downfall.”
