Israel was born under the British mandate. We learned from the British what democracy means and how it behaves in a time of danger war and terror. We thank Britain for introducing freedom and respect of human rights both in normal and demanding circumstances.

To be honest I've always had far too much freedom. I had a job when I was 10. I started living on my own when I was 17 or 18. I've earned my own money I've traveled the world. What would I rebel against?

And we can celebrate when we have a government that has earned back the trust of the people it serves... when we have a government that honors our Constitution and stands up for the values that have made America America: economic freedom individual liberty and personal responsibility.

We in the United States should be all the more thankful for the freedom and religious tolerance we enjoy. And we should always remember the lessons learned from the Holocaust in hopes we stay vigilant against such inhumanity now and in the future.

Many politicians are in the habit of laying it down as a self-evident proposition that no people ought to be free till they are fit to use their freedom. The maxim is worthy of the fool in the old story who resolved not to go into the water till he had learned to swim.

The new freedom of expression brought by the Internet goes far beyond politics. People relate to each other in new ways posing questions about how we should respond to people when all that we know about them is what we have learned through a medium that permits all kinds of anonymity and deception.

Freedom does not come without a price. We may sometimes take for granted the many liberties we enjoy in America but they have all been earned through the ultimate sacrifice paid by so many of the members of our armed forces.

Children should have enough freedom to be themselves - once they've learned the rules.

I learned a long time ago that some people would rather die than forgive. It's a strange truth but forgiveness is a painful and difficult process. It's not something that happens overnight. It's an evolution of the heart.

I learned very early that our health is always impaired by some excess either of food or abstinence and I never had any physician except myself.

I've learned there's a big difference between a long-focused value investor and a good short-seller. That difference is psychological and I think it falls into the realm of behavioral finance.

The one thing I've learned is that stuttering in public is never as bad as I fear it will be.

We will be safer from terrorist attack only when we have earned the respect of all other nations instead of their fear respect for our values and not merely our weapons.

He has not learned the first lesson of life who does not every day surmount a fear.

He who is not everyday conquering some fear has not learned the secret of life.

Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we learned here.

I have learned over the years that when one's mind is made up this diminishes fear knowing what must be done does away with fear.

I don't care how famous a guitarist is he ain't learned everything. There's always somewhere to go something to mash up but he ain't found it yet. You never learn everything on that guitar neck.

I've learned to stay away from publicity addicts people who want to be famous for no reason.

HBO is really famous for hiring good people and staying out of their way until they ask for help or need it. And that reputation is earned.

What I've learned is that you really don't need to be a celebrity or have money or have the paparazzi following you around to be famous.

I served the famous professors and scholars and eventually they learned that the Reverend Moon is superior to them. Even Nobel laureate academics who thought they were at the center of knowledge are as nothing in front of me.

I had a really wonderful upbringing. We were a tight family. It was wonderful to grow up with so many siblings. We were all just a year or two apart and we were always so supportive of each other. I learned everything from my older brother and sister and taught it to my younger sisters.
