When you can't do any housecleaning because everything that goes on is a damned secret, then we're on our way to something the Founding Fathers didn't have in mind. Secrecy and a free, democratic government don't mix.

It is through generous giving, that we affirm before the world, our nation's faith in the inalienable right of every man, to a life of freedom, justice and security.

Democracy is based on the conviction that man has the moral and intellectual capacity, as well as the inalienable right, to govern himself with reason and justice.

The seeds of totalitarian regimes are nurtured by misery and want.

Always be sincere, even if you don't mean it.

(The AMA is) "just another mean trust."

If you can't beat 'em, confuse 'em.
