parent said found
I wouldn't listen to my parents, but I found out that I absorbed. I never heard what they said - told me - but I did what they did.
I tried. But not everybody thought so.
soldier president glitter
President Jimmy Carter was a citizen soldier. Ironically, he was considered weak because he didn't kill anybody and he didn't get anyone killed.
children taken ideas
Our children lost our direction because they have been compromised. They have found freedom at the ballot box, and then they have taken on plastic chains around their minds and souls and mortgage their future on credit cards. They have to learn better - they have to learn the value of ideas and health as opposed to wealth.
gun men years
If I wanted to develop a scenario to destroy America, I would do what the Republicans are doing. Take the brightest and best young black men off the streets, put them in jail, make them meaner than hell for 8 or 10 years and then turn them lose in a society where there are plenty of guns for them to play with.
running white black
I was much more comfortable and a much better congressman running in a district that was 37 percent black, where I had to have a white constituency to get elected, than I would have been if I was in a 75 percent black district.

Having personally watched the Voting Rights Act being signed into law that August day, I can't begin to imagine how we could have all been so wrong in believing that more Americans would vote once they were all truly free to do so.

nonsense preacher make-sense
If you're a preacher, you talk for a living, so even if you don't make sense, you learn to make nonsense eloquently.
power insomnia use
Moral power is probably best when it is not used. The less you use it the more you have.
good-life thinking parent
I like my life. I've had a good life. I think the reason is my parents taught me that life is a burden. But if you take it one day at a time, it's an easy burden.
determined
Everybody is determined by his own experience.
business virtue hundred
Nothing is illegal if one hundred businessmen decide to do it.
