I want to cut his nuts off.

When I was a boy we were poor and we had to make do with what we had. So my grandma used to make us quits that we used for blankets. She couldn't afford to go to the store and buy a blanket -- so she'd take scraps of cloth and sew them together. there'd be different colors and different patterns and different types of cloth -- but they all went together to make that big quilt to keep us warm.

You cannot have a diplomatic offensive without talking.

Deliberation and debate is the way you stir the soul of our democracy.

The trouble is that nonviolence is so often defined as refusal to fight, and that is the American definition of cowardice. In fact, marching unarmed against the guns and dogs of the police requires more courage than does aggression. The perverted idea of manhood coming from the barrel of a gun is what keeps people from understanding nonviolence.

So much talent comes from the base of poverty and those in the margins. You limit the base, you miss too much talent.

At least the politicians are accountable to the voters.
