Document Quotations
The length of this document defends it well against the risk of its being read.
Winston Churchill
Today's Constitution is a realistic document of freedom only because of several corrective amendments. Those amendments speak to a sense of decency and fairness that I and other Blacks cherish.
Thurgood Marshall
Now, whenever you read any historical document, you always evaluate it in light of the historical context.
Josh McDowell
What is a diary as a rule? A document useful to the person who keeps it. Dull to the contemporary who reads it and invaluable to the student, centuries afterwards, who treasures it.
Walter Scott
The American Constitution is the greatest governing document, and at some 7,000 words, just about the shortest.
Stephen Ambrose
It's not about trying to be funny all the time. It's more of a document that hopefully is funny.
David Cross
We know no document is perfect, but when we amend the Constitution, it would be to expand rights, not to take away rights from decent, loyal Americans. This great Constitution of ours should never be used to make a group of Americans permanent second-class citizens.
Barbara Boxer
In modern Russia, you have no official, formal assessment of this past. Nobody in any Russian document has said that the policy of the Soviet government was criminal, that it was terrible. No one has ever said this.
Ryszard Kapuscinski
I never go back and listen to the recorded document. The thrill comes when the balance can be attained. Everyone in the room can have a shared, communal rock experience.
Thurston Moore
I'm more married to Sandy now than when we were married with the legal document. We're still married as parents.
Bobby Darin
