I am certainly not politically affiliated with Mr. Obama.

All women have a perception much more developed than men. So all women somehow, being repressed for so many millennia, they ended up by developing this sixth sense and contemplation and love. And this is something that we have a hard time to accept as part of our society.

One of the most pervasive political visions of our time is the vision of liberals as compassionate and conservatives as less caring.

Every President wants to do right.

I was set free because my greatest fear had been realized, and I still had a daughter who I adored, and I had an old typewriter and a big idea. And so rock bottom became a solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life.

The Iranian government is undoubtedly a severe danger to its own population, but not beyond that.

Part of the problem is there are people in Washington, D.C. in positions of power to whom the border is just a nuisance, and I think some of them believe that illegal immigration is a moral good. It is not. It undermines legal immigration.

So people are talking about revolution. What a revolution it would be to have a woman president.

The philosophy of the school room in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next.

Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.

I have always been grateful to Colonel Longley. He proved to me that when people in authority take a stand, good can come out of it.

Leadership is a choice, not a position.

I will not run for president. No, nope, not going to do it.

In a time not distant, it will be possible to flash any image formed in thought on a screen and render it visible at any place desired. The perfection of this means of reading thought will create a revolution for the better in all our social relations.

You always want your people to be proud of what you have accomplished.

The essence of Government is power; and power, lodged as it must be in human hands, will ever be liable to abuse.

It is not my nature, when I see a people borne down by the weight of their shackles – the oppression of tyranny – to make their life more bitter by heaping upon them greater burdens; but rather would I do all in my power to raise the yoke than to add anything that would tend to crush them.

For other nations, utopia is a blessed past never to be recovered; for Americans it is just beyond the horizon.

Blessed are the hearts that can bend; they shall never be broken.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

Only those who want everything done for them are bored.

A good objective of leadership is to help those who are doing poorly to do well and to help those who are doing well to do even better.

Some day, following the example of the United States of America, there will be a United States of Europe.

Most people who ask for advice from others have already resolved to act as it pleases them.

Ronald Reagan used to alarm other constituencies by speaking freely about the End Times foreshadowed in the Bible.

Girls shouldn’t worry about being the equal of men in the business world.

Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.

From a young age, I learned to focus on the things I was good at and delegate to others what I was not good at. That’s how Virgin is run. Fantastic people throughout the Virgin Group run our businesses, allowing me to think creatively and strategically.

I can move any crowd.

We are the creative force of our life, and through our own decisions rather than our conditions, if we carefully learn to do certain things, we can accomplish those goals.

When a new source of taxation is found it never means, in practice, that the old source is abandoned. It merely means that the politicians have two ways of milking the taxpayer where they had one before.

There were the questions of what kind of First Lady I would be, what issues would I focus on. Those were the questions that were being pounded on me through the campaign. A lot of times, I wondered what in the world Barack was even getting us into.

I have some good friends of my own who happen to be gay, and when it comes to gay, straight, or whatever, I’m for anything life-affirmative. I’m for gay power, straight power, male power, female power; everybody should feel empowered without oppressing anyone who’s different.

The President is going to benefit from me reporting directly to him when I arrive.

Positional leaders ignore the fact that every person has hopes, dreams, desires, and goals of his own. And leaders must bring their vision and the aspirations of the people they lead together in a way that benefits everyone.

Democracy is when the indigent, and not the men of property, are the rulers.

The leaders come up from the volunteers that do the work, and it’s amazing because then they do these incredible things in their community that they never thought they had the power to make that happen.

Go before the people with your example, and be laborious in their affairs.

I love stories about women.

In my videos, I always want to be a powerful woman. That’s my mission.

Politics, as a practise, whatever its professions, has always been the systematic organization of hatreds.
