I see things with my own eyes, just as if they were the first eyes that ever saw, and then I set about to tell, as best I can, just what I've seen.

Set the foot down with distrust on the crust of the world - it is thin.

The longest absence is less perilous to love than the terrible trials of incessant proximity.

Where you used to be, there is a hole in the world, which I find myself constantly walking around in the daytime, and falling in at night. I miss you like hell.

I happen to be a conservative, but one need not accept the Right's theories wholesale to acknowledge the sometimes negative effects of government action on health care.

I believe that the root cause of every financial crisis, the root cause, is flawed government policies.

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.

The government should train and direct the people in their acquisition of political knowledge and ability, thereby enabling them to exercise the powers of election, recall, initiative, and referendum.
