Favorite Quote:
"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.' - President Barack Obama
"Always aim high, work hard, and care deeply about what you believe in. And, when you stumble, keep faith. And, when you're knocked down, get right back up and never listen to anyone who says you can't or shouldn't go on." - former Sec. of State Hillary Clinton
"Simply put, Social Security doesn't contribute to the deficit, and politicians should keep their hands off the trust fund." - Elizabeth Colbert Busch
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science."
--Albert Einstein
"Corporations are not bad things. They're neither good nor bad. But the problem is, they're a bad influence on society if they get too much power, because their basic interest is the bottom line. And they forget that human beings have souls. We're not meant to be simply cogs in a machine."
-Governor Howard Dean
"We have an obligation to one another as Americans and as human beings. America will be stronger when we recognize that we are dependent on each other, responsible for each other, and connected to each other."
- Governor Howard Dean (Common Sense for a New Century)
"I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts."
- President Abraham Lincoln
"The crime and not the scaffold makes the shame."
- François-Marie-Thomas Chevalier de Lorimier
"...someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a Liberal, then I'm proud to say I'm a Liberal."
- President John F. Kennedy
"Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe."
-- Frederick Douglass
"Like most others, I was a seeker, a mover, a malcontent, and at times a stupid hell-raiser. I was never idle long enough to do much thinking, but I felt somehow that some of us were making real progress, that we had taken an honest road, and that the best of us would inevitably make it over the top. At the same time, I shared a dark suspicion that the life we were leading was a lost cause, that we were all actors, kidding ourselves along on a senseless odyssey. It was the tension between these two poles - a restless idealism on one hand and a sense of impending doom on the other - that kept me going."
-- Hunter S. Thompson (The Rum Diary)
"Every GOP administration since 1952 has let the Military-Industrial Complex loot the Treasury and plunge the nation into debt on the excuse of a wartime economic emergency. Richard Nixon comes quickly to mind, along with Ronald Reagan and his ridiculous 'trickle-down' theory of U.S. economic policy. If the Rich get Richer, the theory goes, before long their pots will overflow and somehow 'trickle down' to the poor, who would rather eat scraps off the Bush family plates than eat nothing at all. Republicans have never approved of democracy, and they never will. It goes back to preindustrial America, when only white male property owners could vote."
-- Hunter S. Thompson
"It belongs to the soul to participate continuously in intelligible order and divine beauty."
-- Iamblichus (On the Egyptian Mysteries)
"I feel safe in the midst of my enemies, for the truth is all powerful and will prevail."
-- Sojourner Truth
"I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... and I'm all out of bubblegum."
-- "Rowdy" Roddy Piper (as Nada in the 1988 classic They Live)
"Shut up crime!"
-- Rainn Wilson (as the Crimson Bolt in Super)
"Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe."
-- Frederick Douglass
