Dwight D. EisenhowerThat we have come as far as we have in forty years [the 1930s to the 1970s] is hopeful though I believe it is more through the fact that Hitler's excesses made racism poisonous to any humane individual than through our own virtue. That we have much farther to go is incontestable.
Isaac AsimovHope and change? We're not doing that anymore. They're doing attack and blame. And so I just think people are going to see through this. They want real leadership. They want us to get this country on the right track.
Paul RyanI have no money no resources no hopes. I am the happiest man alive.
Henry MillerThe only guide to man is his conscience, the only shield to his memory is the rectitude and sincerity of his actions.

Winston Churchill
