running important-values jogging
Everyone who has run knows that its most important value is in removing tension and allowing a release from whatever other cares the day may bring.

I have often wanted to drown my troubles, but I can't get my wife to go swimming.
freedom opportunity rights
Everyone has a right to peaceful coexistence, the basic personal freedoms, the alleviation of suffering, and the opportunity to lead a productive life...
hurt mean thinking
What has happened at Guantanamo Bay... does not represent the will of the American people. I'm embarrassed about it, I think its wrong. I think it does give terrorists an unwarranted excuse to use the despicable means to hurt innocent people.
inspirational motivational rights
Human rights is the soul of our foreign policy, because human rights is the very soul of our sense of nationhood.

Faith implies a continuing search, not necessarily a final answer.
technology ipads apples
We've lost an edge that we used to have in scientific innovation applications to goods to be sold. In many ways, that is also changing in the electronic field. Almost all of the materials that we use now are of advanced technology, I have an iPad and also an iPod, both of which are made in China. Although we have designed them here with Apple, for instance, they are manufactured overseas.

I believe there is complete equality between men and women. And I believe those passages in the New Testament, not by Jesus, but by Paul, that say women should not adorn themselves, they should always wear hats or color their hair in church - things like that - I think they are signs of the times and should not apply to modern-day life.

strong military war
As a matter of fact, although we had some terrible challenges and temptations when I was in office, we never dropped a bomb... we never launched a missile... and we never fired a bullet. I think that one of the main requirements for a strong military, like a strong submarine force, is to prevent war, not to cause war.
moving fate community
Each of us must rededicate ourselves to serving the common good. We are a community. Our individual Fates are linked; our futures intertwined; and if we act in that knowledge and in that spirit together, as the Bible says: "We can move mountains."
wind profound spirit
Spirit is like the wind, in that we can't see it but can see its effects, which are profound.
differences people volunteer
Throughout my life, I've seen the difference that volunteering efforts can make in people's lives. I know the personal value of service as a local volunteer.

Human identity is no longer defined by what one does but rather by what one owns.
