Thomas JeffersonViolence has been Nicaragua’s most important export to the world.
Ronald ReaganThat is what fame is, isn’t it? To get the world to fall in love with you.

Mark ZuckerbergPeople of Berlin – people of the world – this is our moment. This is our time.

Bill GatesWhen you decide to get involved in a military operation in a place like Syria, you’ve got to be prepared, as we learned from Iraq and Afghanistan, to become the government, and I’m not sure any country, either the United States or I don’t hear of anyone else, who’s willing to take on that responsibility.

Theodore RooseveltIf you get your ego in your way, you will only look to other people and circumstances to blame.
Jocko WillinkI think my message to the politicians who have within their power the ability to make change is, ‚Do you really, really not care about the future of your great-grandchildren? Because if we let the world continue to be destroyed the way we are now, what’s the world going to be like for your great-grandchildren?‘
Jane GoodallAll the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.

Eleanor RooseveltUltimately this issue is on us. We’re the ones who make the decisions about what our kids eat.
Michelle ObamaThe old-fashioned idea is that responsibility falls upon those who borrow and lend. Money was not borrowed by campesinos, assembly plant workers, or slum-dwellers. The mass of the population gained little from borrowing, indeed often suffered grievously from its effects.
Noam ChomskyWe always live in an uncertain world. What is certain is that the United States will go forward over time.

John RuskinThe eye of a human being is a microscope, which makes the world seem bigger than it really is.
Khalil GibranWhen my dad founded our church, he used either a globe or a map of the world behind him. It was symbolic of what Christ said: to go forth and preach hope to the world. We believe in the cross, but we just continued with the globe.

James BaldwinIf we do not maintain justice, justice will not maintain us.
Francis BaconWhen Southern people tell us they are no more responsible for the origin of slavery than we are, I acknowledge the fact. When it is said that the institution exists, and that it is very difficult to get rid of it in any satisfactory way, I can understand and appreciate the saying.
Abraham LincolnLeaders are responsible not for running public opinion polls but for the consequences of their actions.
Henry Kissinger
