The fight against AIDS in China is already well underway. The Chinese government and other funders are providing major support, and they’ll continue to bear primary responsibility for delivering prevention and treatment.
Bill GatesIt’s always great to perform at home in the good ol‘ U.S.A.
Dolly PartonKeep a watch also on the faults of the patients, which often make them lie about the taking of things prescribed.
HippocratesNow you have a choice: we can give more tax breaks to corporations that ship jobs overseas, or we can start rewarding companies that open new plants and train new workers and create new jobs here, in the United States of America.
Barack ObamaIn the spring of 1929, I returned to the United States. I was homesick for this country. I had learned in my student days a great deal about the new physics. I wanted to pursue this myself, to explain it, and to foster its cultivation.
J. Robert OppenheimerI do not have a merchandise line. I don’t sell knives or apparel. Though I have been approached to endorse various products from liquor to airlines to automobiles to pharmaceuticals dozens of times, I have managed to resist the temptation.
Anthony BourdainI would rather drink weedkiller than support Obamacare.
John KennedyThere’s not a liberal America and a conservative America – there’s the United States of America.
Barack ObamaIn 1979, Iranians carried out an illegitimate act: They overthrew a tyrant that the United States had imposed and supported, and moved on an independent path, not following U.S. orders.
Noam ChomskyIt is important that the United States remain a two-party system. I’m a fellow who likes small parties and the Republican Party can’t be too small to suit me.
Lyndon B. JohnsonI believe that of all the things I have done, exciting though many of them have been, there’s no doubt in my mind that the most worthwhile have been the establishing of schools and hospitals, and the rebuilding of monasteries in the mountains.
Edmund HillaryWriters and books are cheap dates, especially when you compare the cost of a book with a ticket to the opera – or an NHL game.
Margaret AtwoodWhy 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 ChomskyThe Global Fund is a central player in the progress being achieved on HIV, TB and malaria. It channels resources to help countries fight these diseases. I believe in its impact because I have seen it firsthand.
Bill GatesTo compromise simply means that you go a tiny bit below what you know is right.
Joyce MeyerPeople seem to know about May Day everywhere except where it began, here in the United States of America. That’s because those in power have done everything they can to erase its real meaning.
Noam ChomskyUnlike Europe, China can’t be intimidated. Europe backs down if the United States looks at it the wrong way. But China, they’ve been there for 3,000 years and are paying no attention to the barbarians and don’t see any need to.
Noam ChomskyYou probably don’t need more weapons than what’s required to destroy every city on earth. There’s only 2,300 cities. So, the United States, by that criteria, only needs 2,300 nuclear weapons – well, we’ve got more than 25,000!
Carl SaganWe always live in an uncertain world. What is certain is that the United States will go forward over time.
Warren BuffettSomeday, the capitalist system will disappear in the United States, because no social class system has been eternal. One day, class societies will disappear.
Fidel CastroI can’t imagine what this place would be – I can’t imagine what the country would be – with Donald Trump as our president.
Ruth Bader GinsburgWe can’t get to the $4 trillion in savings that we need by just cutting the 12 percent of the budget that pays for things like medical research and education funding and food inspectors and the weather service. And we can’t just do it by making seniors pay more for Medicare.
Barack ObamaI can die a happy man never having been president of the United States of America. But it doesn’t mean I won’t run.
Joe BidenThere is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.
Isaac AsimovDiplomacy is the art of saying ‚Nice doggie‘ until you can find a rock.
Will RogersThe United States prefers that Iraq meet its obligations voluntarily, yet we are prepared for the alternative.
George W. BushThose who can win a war well can rarely make a good peace and those who could make a good peace would never have won the war.
Winston ChurchillThey certainly give very strange names to diseases.
PlatoMy father was not a failure. After all, he was the father of a president of the United States.
Harry S. TrumanObamacare sucks, it can’t be fixed.
John KennedyThe United States has been enriched by Muslim Americans. Many other Americans have Muslims in their families or have lived in a Muslim-majority country – I know, because I am one of them.
Barack ObamaOhio claims they are due a president as they haven’t had one since Taft. Look at the United States, they have not had one since Lincoln.
Will RogersThe United States, to state the obvious, is greatly concerned by the startling number of unaccompanied minors that – children and teenagers who are making a very perilous journey through Central America to reach the United States.
Joe BidenYou know capitalism is this wonderful thing that motivates people, it causes wonderful inventions to be done. But in this area of diseases of the world at large, it’s really let us down.
Bill GatesWhat charitable 1 percenters can’t do is assume responsibility – America’s national responsibilities: the care of its sick and its poor, the education of its young, the repair of its failing infrastructure, the repayment of its staggering war debts.
Stephen KingIn the United States, one of the main topics of academic political science is the study of attitudes and policy and their correlation. The study of attitudes is reasonably easy in the United States: heavily-polled society, pretty serious and accurate polls, and policy you can see, and you can compare them.
Noam ChomskyFrom my intimate discussions with President Obama, it is evident that India figures significantly in American geo-political, economic and strategic thinking. India is the largest democracy in the world.
Narendra ModiWhy should man’s first flight to the moon be a matter of national competition? Why should the United States and the Soviet Union, in preparing for such expeditions, become involved in immense duplications of research, construction and expenditure?
John F. KennedyIn the late 1990s, some of the worst terrorist atrocities in the world were what the Turkish government itself called state terror, namely massive atrocities, 80 percent of the arms coming from the United States, millions of refugees, tens of thousands of people killed, hideous repression, that’s international terror, and we can go on and on.
Noam ChomskyI can say with confidence there has never been a man or a woman – not me, not Bill, nobody – more qualified than Hillary Clinton to serve as president of the United States of America.
Barack ObamaWe have now just enshrined, as soon as I sign this bill, the core principle that everybody should have some basic security when it comes to their healthcare.
Barack ObamaDiplomacy is listening to what the other guy needs. Preserving your own position, but listening to the other guy. You have to develop relationships with other people so when the tough times come, you can work together.
Colin PowellGovernment does not create wealth. The major role for the government is to create an environment where people take risks to expand the job rate in the United States.
George W. BushI live on the West Coast of the United States, and yet the air that I breathe is sometimes the same air that was being breathed in China the day before.
Alice WalkerIt seems sensible to me that we should look to the medical profession, that over the centuries has helped us to live longer and healthier lives, to help us die peacefully among our loved ones in our own home without a long stay in God’s waiting room.
Terry PratchettThe United States and our allies are determined: we refuse to live in the shadow of this ultimate danger.
George W. BushAs strong as the United States is, we can’t deal with terrorism alone.
Madeleine AlbrightIn order for the United States to do the right things for the long term, it appears to be helpful for us to have the prospect of humiliation. Sputnik helped us fund good science – really good science: the semiconductor came out of it.
Bill GatesImagine a political system so radical as to promise to move more of the poorest 20% of the population into the richest 20% than remain in the poorest bracket within the decade? You don’t need to imagine it. It’s called the United States of America.
Thomas SowellThe U.S. is just in a class by itself in military expenses. It basically matches the rest of the world, and it’s far more advanced.
Noam ChomskyOnly free men can negotiate. A prisoner cannot enter into contracts.
Nelson MandelaThe men who have guided the destiny of the United States have found the strength for their tasks by going to their knees. This private unity of public men and their God is an enduring source of reassurance for the people of America.
Lyndon B. JohnsonEvery nurse ought to be careful to wash her hands very frequently during the day. If her face, too, so much the better.
Florence NightingaleOne of the great strengths of the United States is… we have a very large Christian population – we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation. We consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values.
Barack ObamaSo long as I’m Commander-in-Chief, we will sustain the strongest military the world has ever known. When you take off the uniform, we will serve you as well as you’ve served us – because no one who fights for this country should have to fight for a job, or a roof over their head, or the care that they need when they come home.
Barack ObamaAfter a century of trying, we declared that healthcare in America is not a privilege for a few, it is a right for everybody. After decades of talk, we finally began to wean ourselves off foreign oil. We doubled our production of clean energy. We brought more of our troops home to their families, and we delivered justice to Osama bin Laden.
Barack ObamaIf anyone is crazy enough to want to kill a president of the United States, he can do it. All he must be prepared to do is give his life for the president’s.
John F. KennedyThe Soviet Union, the socialist camp, the People’s Republic of China, and North Korea helped us resist, with essential supplies and weapons, the implacable blockade of the United States, the most powerful empire ever to exist.
Fidel CastroThe United States never lost a war or won a conference.
Will RogersI’m reasonably optimistic about the future, especially the future of the United States – for the century, at least.
Elon Musk
