You know, I'm a physician. I like to diagnose things. And, you know, I've diagnosed some pretty, pretty significant issues that I think a lot of people resonate with.

Military action is never the first thing that you jump to. You always look at other possibilities, including economic sanctions, tightening the screws.

Through the use of books I had the whole world at my feet: could travel anywhere, meet anyone, and do anything.

I want the government to provide the military so we don't get invaded by somebody and destroyed. I want the government to provide the roads so I can get from point A to B. In terms of taking care of my day to day needs, I want to do that myself. I want my community to do that.

Education does not necessarily make one wise?

I never had money for anything. But I tell you what did really work - books. Between the covers of those books I could go anyplace, I could be anybody, I could do anything.

Everyone in the world worth being nice to. Because God never creates inferior human beings, each person deserves respect and dignity.
