I believe that it is imperative that we learn from the mistakes.

When does life start? When does it end? Who makes these decisions?... Every day, in hospitals and homes and hospices... people are struggling with those profound issues.

I don't think the police, even if we train them, can be, you know, as good as psychologists and psychiatrists and others knowing what is happening to somebody. So we've got to have a more coherent, comprehensive approach.

Religion is about God's truth, but none of us can grasp that truth absolutely, because of our own imperfections and limitations. We are only children of God, not God. Therefore, we must not attempt to fit God into little boxes, claiming that He supports this or that political position. This is not only bad theology; it marginalizes God.

If there is truth or merit in the criticism, try to learn from it. Otherwise, let it roll right off you.

The worst thing that can happen in a democracy - as well as in an individual's life - is to become cynical about the future and lose hope.
