So confident am I in the intentions, as well as wisdom, of the government, that I shall always be satisfied that what is not done, either cannot, or ought not to be done.
Thomas JeffersonIf I am not, may God put me there; and if I am, may God so keep me.
Joan of ArcThe natural cause of the human mind is certainly from credulity to skepticism.
Thomas JeffersonThe lessons of history would suggest that civilisations move in cycles. You can track that back quite far – the Babylonians, the Sumerians, followed by the Egyptians, the Romans, China. We’re obviously in a very upward cycle right now, and hopefully that remains the case. But it may not.
Elon MuskWhy is it that although it takes us years to get into our messes, we expect God to get us out of them in a few days?
Joyce MeyerI purposely don’t talk about money, because people are already skeptical about TV preachers. But I do say that I want you to be blessed. To me, prosperity is having health, having great children, having peace, good relationships. It’s not about the money.
Joel OsteenAs we speak, Iran has rolled back its nuclear program, shipped out its uranium stockpile, and the world has avoided another war.
Barack ObamaMy evidence that I am saved does not lie in the fact that I preach, or that I do this or that. All my hope lies in this: that Jesus Christ came to save sinners. I am a sinner, I trust Him, then He came to save me, and I am saved.
Charles SpurgeonAll I have seen teaches me to trust the creator for all I have not seen.
Ralph Waldo EmersonI would impress upon your minds the fact that if you want to do a man justice, you should believe what a man says himself rather than what people say he says.
Alexander Graham BellEvery time I make American film I just trust American directors and American writers.
Jackie ChanReactionaries often describe both Marx and Lenin as theorists, without taking into consideration that their utopias inspired Russia and China – the two countries called upon to lead a new world which will allow for human survival if imperialism does not first unleash a criminal, exterminating war.
Fidel CastroThe greatest achievements of the human mind are generally received with distrust.

Maya AngelouI have no doubt that Russia will and should remain a major source of energy supplies for Europe and the world.

Maya AngelouAh! yes, I know: those who see me rarely trust my word: I must look too intelligent to keep it.
Jean-Paul SartreIf you don’t know how great this country is, I know someone who does; Russia.
Robert FrostThe older I grow the more I distrust the familiar doctrine that age brings wisdom.
H. L. MenckenWhen we were a smaller company, Facebook login was widely adopted, and the growth rate for it has been quite quick. But in order to get to the next level and become more ubiquitous, it needs to be trusted even more.
Mark ZuckerbergDo not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me.
Jesus ChristChina has many successful entrepreneurs and business people. I hope that more people of insight will put their talents to work to improve the lives of poor people in China and around the world, and seek solutions for them.

Ray BradburyI think really, China, Chinese, I think they really have a long history of civilization, rich culture.
Dalai LamaI do know this: God does answer your prayers, but it’s not always in the way you expect. God knows what’s best for us, though, so there’s no need to worry when things don’t go how we originally wanted them to go.
Lou HoltzChina is certainly an important player in the global economy, and a widespread AIDS epidemic would threaten that growth.
Bill GatesI do not believe any of the statistical claims that are made about public opinion. I don’t see why anybody does.
Christopher HitchensThe United States is afraid of China; it is not a military threat to anyone and is the least aggressive of all the major military powers.
Noam ChomskySkepticism is a virtue in history as well as in philosophy.
Napoleon BonaparteFaith certainly tells us what the senses do not, but not the contrary of what they see; it is above, not against them.

ConfuciusWe cannot always assure the future of our friends; we have a better chance of assuring our future if we remember who our friends are.

Dalai LamaIt’s not a faith in technology. It’s faith in people.

Hunter S. ThompsonPutin goes to bed at night knowing he can break all the rules, and the West will follow all the rules.
Jim MattisOne lesson that every nation can learn from China is to focus more on creating village-level enterprises, quality health services and educational facilities.
A. P. J. Abdul KalamI believe that a trusting attitude and a patient attitude go hand in hand. You see, when you let go and learn to trust God, it releases joy in your life. And when you trust God, you’re able to be more patient. Patience is not just about waiting for something… it’s about how you wait, or your attitude while waiting.
Joyce MeyerTo say that the United States has pursued diplomacy with North Korea is a little bit misleading. It did under the Clinton administration, though neither side completely lived up to their obligations. Clinton didn’t do what was promised, nor did North Korea, but they were making progress.
Noam ChomskyTo have faith is to trust yourself to the water. When you swim you don’t grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown. Instead you relax, and float.

Jean-Paul SartreWhy should Iran have a deterrent strategy? Well, it’s surrounded by hostile enemies. Both of its borders have been under occupation by a hostile superpower, the United States, which is constantly violating the U.N. charter by leaving open what they call the saying, ‚all options are open‘ – meaning the threat of war.
Noam ChomskyAge appears to be best in four things; old wood best to burn, old wine to drink, old friends to trust, and old authors to read.
Francis BaconI don’t like people going behind my back.
Abby Lee MillerGod just has a way of working things out the way he wants to and you have no say in that.
