quotes
This is a list of all of my favorite quotes. You may also be interested in a list of specifically political quotes.
- The world is all messed up. The nation is sick. Trouble is in the land. Confusion all around. That's a strange statement. But I know, somehow, that only when it is dark enough, can you see the stars. And I see God working in this period of the twentieth century in a way that men, in some strange way, are responding - something is happening in our world. The masses of people are rising up. And wherever they are assembled today, whether they are in Johannesburg, South Africa; Nairobi, Kenya; Accra, Ghana; New York City; Atlanta, Georgia; Jackson, Mississippi; or Memphis, Tennessee - the cry is always the same - "We want to be free."
- Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., I’ve Been to the Mountaintop - Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
- David, Psalms 23:4 (Bible) - And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
- Max Ehrmann, Desiderata - It is greater to be dead than to be unfree; at least, for some, there is liberty in death.
- Calen Fretts, random thoughts - I will not die; it's the world that will end.
- Ayn Rand - Airplanes, which, correct me if I'm wrong, are made of metal, much of it steel. Wouldn't they be dropping from the sky if fire from jet fuel melted or weakened steel? "I'm not getting on that airplane, it's obviously going to weakened by the fuel fires from its engines and plummet from the sky, taking me to an early grave!"
- fknnewz, on fires melting both WTC buildings - In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility. I welcome it.
- John F. Kennedy, Inaugural Address, 1961 - The government is an artificial creation based on fear and force. You don't have to take my word for that, because the first President of the United States said 'The government is based on force', and the second President of the United States said 'The government is based on fear'.
- Judge Andrew Napolitano, Campaign for Liberty speech - And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
- Jesus Christ, John 8:32 (Bible) - I was talking to this guy who said 'Hey man, when you get big, don't forget about us.' And I thought about it for a while, and then I said 'Hey man, if I never make it at all? I just don't want y'all to forget about me.'
- Mr Chi City
