Slavery

"There are two ways to enslave a country, one is by sword the other is by
debt." John Adams

Life's Tough

"Life's tough, Pilgrim, it's tougher when you're stupid"  The Duke 

Harmful

Like the well-meaning, a warm wind often blows harm disguised.

Think

Instead of teaching people what they should think, just teach them to think for themselves.

Truth

"Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick
themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened."
- Winston S. Churchill

Our Power

"What lies in our power to do, lies in our power not to do."
 - Aristotle

He Forgot

“The fact that we are here today to debate raising America ’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America ’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that ‘the buck stops here.' Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better.”
-- Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006
