Tom BradyWe are, indeed, not among the least contented. You, however, if your belief makes you blessed then appear to be blessed!

As things are, however, all your apologies for Christianity have their roots in your lack of Christianity; with your defense plea you inscribe your own bill of indictment.

I have had an extreme opportunity to learn that lesson, and I think it's been such a blessed fortune.

Lyndon B. JohnsonI feel we are so blessed to live in a country where we enjoy so many rights that other countries cannot even begin to imagine. However, it terrifies me that we seem to have lost touch with our connection to the earth.

Ephrem the SyrianI think that there are times when Puertoricans think, "Oh, we are blessed with the relationship with the U.S." But the end result will not be that. If Puerto Rico becomes similar to Hawaii - well, the Hawaiian Native population is about 9 percent. And if we go to the prisons, the overwhelming majority of the prisoners are the Natives. So I can anticipate that Puerto Ricans will not be better off by the annexation of the U.S. of Puerto Rico. I also know for a fact that once any nation or any people lose their identity, their language, their lifestyles, that they are a little dehumanized.
Oscar Lopez RiveraAnd one more idea which may be laughed and sneered at in some supposedly sophisticated circles, but I just have to believe that the loving God who has blessed this land and thus made us a good and caring people should never have been expelled from America's classrooms.

Melanie IglesiasAs calls come to us for church service by the Lord's representatives, it is natural for us to wonder why we have been selected.

Henry D. TaylorIf love exists between two persons, it is blessed. If love does not exist between two persons, then all your laws put together cannot bridge them.

They are nasty to each other, nagging to each other, possessive of each other, violent, oppressive, dominating, dictatorial.
