I'm completely in favor of the separation of Church and State. My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death.
George Carlin
When the tyrant has disposed of foreign enemies by conquest or treaty, and there is nothing more to fear from them, then he is always stirring up some war or other, in order that the people may require a leader.
Plato
When men speak ill of thee, live so as nobody may believe them.
Plato
Life is thickly sown with thorns, and I know no other remedy than to pass quickly through them. The longer we dwell on our misfortunes, the greater is their power to harm us.
Voltaire
Nothing would be more tiresome than eating and drinking if God had not made them a pleasure as well as a necessity.
Voltaire
Tyrants have always some slight shade of virtue; they support the laws before destroying them.
Voltaire
Anyone who seeks to destroy the passions instead of controlling them is trying to play the angel.
Voltaire
Satire lies about literary men while they live and eulogy lies about them when they die.
Voltaire
People respond when you tell them there is a great future in front of you, you can leave your past behind.
Joel Osteen
Most people already know what they're doing wrong. When I get them to church I want to tell them that you can change.
Joel Osteen
I try to speak in everyday language. I feel like God has gifted me to take Bible principles and make them practical.
Joel Osteen
Don't let it end like this. Tell them I said something.
Pancho Villa
The ideas I stand for are not mine. I borrowed them from Socrates. I swiped them from Chesterfield. I stole them from Jesus. And I put them in a book. If you don't like their rules, whose would you use?
Dale Carnegie
Speakers who talk about what life has taught them never fail to keep the attention of their listeners.
Dale Carnegie
Tell the audience what you're going to say, say it; then tell them what you've said.
Dale Carnegie
Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity.
George S. Patton
I've got two daughters. 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals. But if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby.
Barack Obama
If the people cannot trust their government to do the job for which it exists - to protect them and to promote their common welfare - all else is lost.
Barack Obama
It's not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.
Barack Obama
In December, I agreed to extend the tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans because it was the only way I could prevent a tax hike on middle-class Americans. But we cannot afford $1 trillion worth of tax cuts for every millionaire and billionaire in our society. We can't afford it. And I refuse to renew them again.
Barack Obama
