I look askance at any movement which assists in making the peacemaker among nations merely a national warrior Picture Quote #1

Honestly, being a 5 11 quarterback, not too many people think that you can play in the National Football League. And so for me, you know, I knew that my height doesn’t define my skill set, you know?

Being named as a finalist for the USA Basketball National Team is an unbelievable feeling and an opportunity that is truly humbling. It is an honor to be included with such talented players and I look forward to the chance to represent my country this summer Picture Quote #1

The jelly-bean eating thug says that national defense is important. But national defense starts at home Picture Quote #1

There’s no real nationalism in this county. If you’re poor in America, that’s a criminal offense. You’re not only a criminal for being poor, but you’re also stupid and deficient. We don’t have this national feeling of fraternity. We live in an individualist state where everyone hates everyone else, except your immediate family. We live in a mafia state Picture Quote #1

General welfare is a general condition - maybe sound currency is general welfare, maybe markets, maybe judicial system, maybe a national defense, but this is specific welfare. This justifies the whole welfare state - the military industrial complex, the welfare to foreigners, the welfare state that imprisons our people and impoverishes our people and gives us our recession Picture Quote #1

Any military force should be dictated by the vital national security interests of the United States. And if and when we use force, we should use overwhelming force for a clearly stated objective. And then when we’re done, we should get the heck out Picture Quote #1

Nobody cared about the riot until they thought it might spill into their nice neighborhoods. Then they got scared and called the National Guard Picture Quote #1

On every album I’ve put out, I’ve put diverse Canadian songs on it. They’re not provincial album; my albums are national albums. There’ll be a song about Saskatchewan and Vancouver and Nova Scotia on there Picture Quote #1

I’m very excited every time I’m at Augusta National. It’s such a beautiful and fabulous golf course Picture Quote #1

An incident that left an impression on me was the 1999 sub-junior national boxing championship held in Calcutta. I had trained extremely hard to get there but got kicked out in the first round itself. ‘If others can win, why can’t you?’ I repeatedly asked myself Picture Quote #1

Biodiversity can’t be maintained by protecting a few species in a zoo, or by preserving greenbelts or national parks. To function properly, nature needs more room than that. It can maintain itself, however, without human expense, without zookeepers, park rangers, foresters or gene banks. All it needs is to be left alone Picture Quote #1

The British have turned their sense of humour into a national virtue. It is odd, because through much of history, humour has been considered cheap, and laughter something for the lower orders. But British aristocrats didn’t care a damn about what people thought of them, so they made humour acceptable Picture Quote #1

If the monarchy were removed tomorrow, it wouldn’t have a huge effect on the national mind-set. The monarchy is mildly interesting and largely harmless. I can’t find I can get very heated about it. In the next couple of generations, it is bound to go. There is so much else in the world that is more interesting Picture Quote #1

Development is a fundamental part of our national security. It is extreme poverty- the realities of access to water and food- which create the long-term drivers of our insecurity. Most wars are fought over scarce resources and that is going to accelerate in the future Picture Quote #1

You know what we should do? We should just put flags on everybody. Let’s make it the NFFL - the National Flag Football League. It’s unbelievable Picture Quote #1

If the national security is involved, anything goes. There are no rules. There are people so lacking in roots about what is properand what is improper that they don’t know there’s anything wrong in breaking into the headquarters of the opposition party Picture Quote #1

Now, here’s a good question: should serious people focus on global political instability - terrorism, failing states, nuclear weapons - or should we focus on global climate instability - droughts, floods, extreme weather? Here’s the correct answer: yes, both, because climate disruption will make every other national security problem worse Picture Quote #1

It is clear that the American people are weary of war. However, Assad gassing his own people is an issue of our national security, regional stability and global security Picture Quote #1

We’ve seen a departure from the traditional work of the National Security Agency. They’ve become sort of the national hacking agency, the national surveillance agency. And they’ve lost sight of the fact that everything they do is supposed to make us more secure as a nation and a society Picture Quote #1

We need to put the security back in the National Security Agency. We can’t have the national surveillance agency Picture Quote #1

It’s becoming less and less the National Security Agency and more and more the national surveillance agency. It’s gaining more offensive powers with each passing year Picture Quote #1

It is absurd to imagine that any child will be able to earn a living, let alone contribute to resolving our world’s complex problems, without knowing how to read and write.
