Faith is the state of being ultimately concerned.

I think there ought to be a strict separation or wall built between our religious faith and our practice of political authority in office. I don't think the President of the United States should extoll Christianity if he happens to be a Christian at the expense of Judaism Islam or other faiths.

The separation of church and state is a source of strength but the conscience of our nation does not call for separation between men of state and faith in the Supreme Being.

You cannot be President of the United States if you don't have faith. Remember Lincoln going to his knees in times of trial in the Civil War and all that stuff.

No matter how corrupt and unjust a convict may be he loves fairness more than anything else. If the people placed over him are unfair from year to year he lapses into an embittered state characterized by an extreme lack of faith.

Faith is a state of openness or trust.

Faith is not something to grasp it is a state to grow into.

I rise today to offer a formal and heartfelt apology to all the victims of lynching in our history and for the failure of the United States Senate to take action when action was most needed.

Mr. Gonzales' failure to respond to questions legitimately posed to him by the Senate raises grave doubts in my mind as to his fitness to serve the people of the United States as their Attorney General.

I think he Oswald felt he was a failure and for the United States and for President Kennedy and all of us. He knew he was a failure at everything he tried frustrated with a very sad life but he was a Marxist.

Our system provides for a winner to take office on January 20th and he is expected to take command of the ship of state. Failure to do so characterized by hesitation and indecision will harm the national interest.

We have actually experienced in recent months a dramatic demonstration of an unprecedented intelligence failure perhaps the most significant intelligence failure in the history of the United States.

Foreign aid is neither a failure nor a panacea. It is instead an important tool of American policy that can serve the interests of the United States and the world if wisely administered.

Taxation is the price we pay for failing to build a civilized society. The higher the tax level the greater the failure. A centrally planned totalitarian state represents a complete defeat for the civilized world while a totally voluntary society represents its ultimate success.

The most tragic paradox of our time is to be found in the failure of nation-states to recognize the imperatives of internationalism.

Crime and bad lives are the measure of a State's failure all crime in the end is the crime of the community.

Failure is authentic and because it's authentic it's real and genuine and because of that it's a pure state of being.

Have you ever watched someone become American? Last week at a national citizenship conference I organize thirty immigrants from 17 countries swore an oath and became citizens of the United States. It was a stirring experience for the hundreds of people in the room.

The statesman's duty is to bridge the gap between his nation's experience and his vision.

The equality among all members of the League which is provided in the statutes giving each state only one vote cannot of course abolish the actual material inequality of the powers concerned.

Well my personal mission statement is that we want marriage equality in all 50 states. We want it not to be a state-by-state issue. We don't want it to be something the majority is voting on. I don't think the civil rights of any minority should be in the hands of any majority.

The basis the corner-stone of this Government was the perfect equality of the free sovereign and independent States which made it.

I would point out that Japan's proposal at the Versailles Peace Conference on the principle of racial equality was rejected by delegates such as those from Britain and the United States.

We will have bigger bureaucracies bigger labor unions and bigger state-run corporations. It will be harder to be an entrepreneur because of punitive taxes and regulations. The rewards of success will be expropriated for the sake of attaining greater income equality.
