To his dog, every man is Napoleon; hence the constant popularity of dogs.

It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.

If the Great Way perishes there will morality and duty. When cleverness and knowledge arise great lies will flourish. When relatives fall out with one another there will be filial duty and love. When states are in confusion there will be faithful servants.

If you look at the movie ‚Belly,‘ I identify with Sincere the most. I am a gangster. I love my lady to death. I’m not in the game for the wrong reasons. I’m not in the game for the glory. I’m in the game to survive so the people that I love could be straight. I’m a highly intelligent individual.

‚My country, right or wrong‘ is a thing no patriot would ever think of saying except in a desperate case. It is like saying ‚My mother, drunk or sober.‘

I’ve got four dogs, and I just don’t do dog doo. I’m a diva when it comes to that.

Facebook and Instagram are both really popular with teens, both in the U.S. and globally across the world. I think what you’re starting to see is that there are all these different ways that people want to share and communicate.

Cleveland fans are awesome.

I have never left another senator out to dry. Never.

Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn’t argue with that; I’m right and I will be proved right. We’re more popular than Jesus now; I don’t know which will go first – rock and roll or Christianity.

OVOXO will always be there.

I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live by the light that I have. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong.

I desire so to conduct the affairs of this administration that if at the end… I have lost every other friend on earth, I shall at least have one friend left, and that friend shall be down inside of me.

Some people are making music just for numbers and views.

There is no friend as loyal as a book.

True friends stab you in the front.

I don’t keep people around me that aren’t family. You don’t get to stay. Unless you’re eating at the table with us, you’re not part. We eat together, we cry together, we live together, we die together. Everything that we do is for each other, and we care for another.

I declare before you all that my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service and the service of our great imperial family to which we all belong.

When people laugh at Mickey Mouse, it’s because he’s so human; and that is the secret of his popularity.

Whoever won’t fight when the President calls him, deserves to be kicked back in his hole and kept there.

In poverty and other misfortunes of life, true friends are a sure refuge. The young they keep out of mischief; to the old they are a comfort and aid in their weakness, and those in the prime of life they incite to noble deeds.

Proud 2 Pay – that’s something that distinguishes me, that’s something that defines me, and we’re going to keep that going.

You cannot share your life with a dog, as I had done in Bournemouth, or a cat, and not know perfectly well that animals have personalities and minds and feelings.

No one is a friend to his friend who does not love in return.

They died hard, those savage men – like wounded wolves at bay. They were filthy, and they were lousy, and they stunk. And I loved them.

It’s a big compliment that so many people want to see me. For them, it’s all about football. That’s what they remember about me.

Standing as I do, with my hand upon this staff, and under the folds of the American flag, I ask you to stand by me so long as I stand by it.

I don’t think that my kind of journalism has ever been universally popular. It’s lonely out here.

Fidelity and allegiance sworn to the King is only such a fidelity and obedience as is due to him by the law of the land; for were that faith and allegiance more than what the law requires, we would swear ourselves slaves and the King absolute; whereas, by the law, we are free men, notwithstanding those oaths.

There are few cases in which mere popularity should be considered a proper test of merit; but the case of song-writing is, I think, one of the few.

Every sentence spoken by Napoleon, and every line of his writing, deserves reading, as it is the sense of France.

Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it.

As an artist your first loyalty is to your art. Unless this is the case, you’re going to be a second-rate artist.

When a man has once loved a woman he will do anything for her except continue to love her.

Fame may go by and – so long, I’ve had you.

To conceal anything from those to whom I am attached, is not in my nature. I can never close my lips where I have opened my heart.

I am fond of pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.

The Constitution is the guide which I never will abandon.

A friend in power is a friend lost.

I spend a great deal of time with the President. We have a very close, personal, loyal relationship. I’m not, as they say, a potted plant in these meetings.

As a sportsperson, the best thing is people recognising you and loving you for what you do. For me, glamour is 100 people in the hotel feeling happy to see you.

Guard against the impostures of pretended patriotism.

In fact, my popularity seems almost entirely a masculine phenomenon.

Test a servant while in the discharge of his duty, a relative in difficulty, a friend in adversity, and a wife in misfortune.

I learned from my dog long before I went to Gombe that we weren’t the only beings with personalities. What the chimps did was help me to persuade others.

Patriotism is the willingness to kill and be killed for trivial reasons.

Writers are lampposts and critics are dogs. Ask lampposts what they think about dogs. Does the dog hurt the lamppost?

Patriotism is your conviction that this country is superior to all others because you were born in it.

Waking up every day and loving someone who may or may not love us back, whose safety we can’t ensure, who may stay in our lives or may leave without a moment’s notice, who may be loyal to the day they die or betray us tomorrow – that’s vulnerability.

If you talk bad about country music, it’s like saying bad things about my momma. Them’s fightin‘ words.

This morning I lay in the bathtub thinking how wonderful it would be if I had a dog like Rin Tin Tin. I’d call him Rin Tin Tin too, and I’d take him to school with me, where he could stay in the janitor’s room or by the bicycle racks when the weather was good.
