And we must share it, for only by being one with them can we redeem them by bringing God into their lives and bringing them to God Picture Quote #1

There are but two future verbs which man may appropriate confidently and without pride: I shall suffer, and I shall die Picture Quote #1

Picture Quote #1

The charm of television entertainment is its ability to bridge the chasm between dinner and bedtime without mental distraction Picture Quote #1

Happiness is a small and unworthy goal for something as big and fancy as a whole lifetime, and should be taken in small doses Picture Quote #1

I looked into the vast dome of blue emptiness that stretched out above me in all directions and the illusion was still there, the size and speed, and what information they were sending to mother Earth Picture Quote #1

National defense through war always involves some degree of national defeat. This paradox has been with us from the very beginning of our republic. Militarization in defense of freedom reduces the freedom of the defenders. There is a fundamental inconsistency between war and freedom Picture Quote #1

On his career: I admit I've done a few lousy roles in the beginning of my career, like my role in Critters 3 (1991). But at that age, you'll do anything for attention! Picture Quote #1

The real differences around the world today are not between Jews and Arabs; Protestants and Catholics; Muslims, Croats, and Serbs. The real differences are between those who embrace peace and those who would destroy it; between those who look to the future and those who cling to the past; between those who open their arms and those who are determined to clench their fists Picture Quote #1

Our rich texture of racial, religious and political diversity will be a Godsend in the 21st century. Great rewards will come to those who can live together, learn together, work together, forge new ties that bind together Picture Quote #1

It is requisite for the relaxation of the mind that we make use, from time to time, of playful deeds and jokes Picture Quote #1
