Yet think-tankers and policy wonks continue to opine, never pausing to reflect on-or apologize for-their spotty records.”
“I consider myself an artist. God granted me some gifts so that I could express myself artistically.”
“There is enough for everyone. People think that there isn't enough, so they get as much as they can, so many people don't have enough.”
“More than anything, I think as our country matures, we recognize that women deserve to be treated with respect and dignity”
“The enemies of American civilization-- for such are the enemies of slavery-- seem to be more on the alert than its friends.”
