“Most of us don’t become what we can be because we can’t see it’s what we already are.”
Carl A. Hammerschlag
“We are not a nation that says: 'don't ask, don't tell'. We are a nation that says: ‘out of many, we are one’. We are a nation that welcomes the service of every patriot. We are a nation that believes all men and women are created equal. It is my honor to sign this bill into law.”
Barack Obama
“Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.”
Dr. Seuss
“If you fight you might lose, if you don’t you have already lost.”
Bertolt Brecht
“I don?t think that helped anything. We kind of threw up a red flag. It was already to the point in the game where we were going to go to the bullpen, anyway. He said it was burning. I don?t think he re-injured it. He had a lot of pitches, some wear and tear in the game.”
Terry Francona
“The Muslim nations of Iraq and Afghanistan, where America is fighting two wars, are opposed to homosexuality. Changing 'Don’t ask, don’t tell' would offend the terrorists in such a way that could put soldiers — and America — at risk of further terrorist attacks.”
Sen Gary Nodler
“I think our addiction to war is nurture rather than nature. We learn to hate, learn to want more, learn to kill. It's what we teach our kids everyday on TV, in the movies, on video games, etc. We mythologize war and conceal its horror. We have managed a scenario in which we have disinfranchised segments of our population, women and gays, demanding equal rights to become victims and killers on the battlefield”
Camillo Mac Bica
