The only kind of writing is rewriting.
My doctors told me this morning my blood pressure is down so low that I can start reading the newspapers.
The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.

You and I are told we must choose between a left or right, but I suggest there is no such thing as a left or right. There is only an up or down.

We are witnessing today a great revolutionary crisis, a crisis where the demands of the economic order are conflicting directly with those of the political order.

It is the Soviet Union that runs against the tide of history by denying human freedom and human dignity to its citizens.

Good but rarely came from good advice.
