God is the universal substance in existing things. He comprises all things. He is the fountain of all being. In Him exists everything that is.

The most important lesson that I have learned is to trust God in every circumstance. Lots of times we go through different trials and following God's plan seems like it doesn't make any sense at all. God is always in control and he will never leave us.

If we are to garner sustained U.S. domestic support for future trade agreements we have to make sure those Americans who have suffered as a consequence of past agreements have an effective social safety net adjustment assistance opportunities for retraining and new job creation that enables all Americans to thrive.

The civil unrest of recent days must come to an end and the healing process must begin for the future of the community. We will provide assistance both in ending the violence and enabling the healing process in Benton Harbor.

Success follows those adept at preserving the substance of the past by clothing it in the forms of the future.

We are a party of innovation. We do not reject our traditions but we are willing to adapt to changing circumstances when change we must. We are willing to suffer the discomfort of change in order to achieve a better future.

The Nautilus was piercing the water with its sharp spur after having accomplished nearly ten thousand leagues in three months and a half a distance greater than the great circle of the earth. Where were we going now and what was reserved for the future?

The dark shadow we seem to see in the distance is not really a mountain ahead but the shadow of the mountain behind - a shadow from the past thrown forward into our future. It is a dark sludge of historical sectarianism. We can leave it behind us if we wish.

I remember interviewing someone I actually felt bad for and therefore didn't want to take an ironic stance against him. It actually turned out to be a really funny piece.

I don't dismiss the music that I was involved with I don't think it was a joke I don't think it was funny or a phase I don't think it was just something I was doing back then to me it was who I am. It connects all the way through. I don't distance myself from any of it.

I was born in very sorry circumstances. Both of my parents were very sorry.

Do not keep on with a mockery of friendship after the substance is gone - but part while you can part friends. Bury the carcass of friendship: it is not worth embalming.

No distance of place or lapse of time can lessen the friendship of those who are thoroughly persuaded of each other's worth.

Freedom to differ is not limited to things that do not matter mush. That would be a mere shadow of freedom. The test of its substance is the right to differ as to things that touch the heart of the existing order.

I don't think that there is absolute freedom of the press. We operate under laws - against libel for instance. The idea that there is some absolute press freedom is kind of a myth.

Men like me who merely wish to establish political freedom will in such circumstances lose all their influence and others will get influence who may become dangerous to all established interests whatsoever.

Every American deserves to live in freedom to have his or her privacy respected and a chance to go as far as their ability and effort will take them - regardless of race gender ethnicity or economic circumstances.
