All people know the same truth. Our lives consist of how we choose to distort it.
Condoms will break, but I can assure you that vows of abstinence will break more easily than condoms.
. . . black women have always found that in the social order of things we're the least likely to be believed--by anyone.
As a Christian, as an individual, as a doctor, I am absolutely opposed to the death penalty.
I feel that we can't educate children who are not healthy, and we can't keep them healthy if they're not educated. There has to be a marriage between health and education. You can't learn if your mind is full of unhealthy images from daily life and confusion about right and wrong.
You can't educate a child who isn't healthy, and you can't keep a child healthy who isn't educated.
It is often easier for our children to obtain a gun than it is to find a good school.
We're all entitled to our own opinions. But none of us can afford to be wrong in our facts.
believe that you've had most of your important memories by the time you're thirty. After that, memory becomes water overflowing into an already full cup. New experiences just don't register in the same way or with the same impact. I could be shooting heroin with the Princess of Wales, naked in a crashing jet, and the experience still couldn't compare to the time the cops chased us after we threw the Taylors' patio furniture into their pool in eleventh grade.
The newspaper that obstructs the law on a trivial pretext, for money's sake, is a dangerous enemy to the public weal. That awful power, the public opinion of a nation, is created in America by a horde of ignorant, self-complacent simpletons who failed at ditching and shoemaking and fetched up in journalism on their way to the poorhouse.
'Trust-me' government asks that we concentrate our hopes and dreams on one man, that we trust him to do what's best for us. My view of government places trust not in one person or one party, but in those values that transcend persons and parties.
