The natural state of motherhood is unselfishness. When you become a mother you are no longer the center of your own universe. You relinquish that position to your children.

On Monday mornings I am dedicated to the proposition that all men are created jerks.

That all men are equal is a proposition to which at ordinary times no sane human being has ever given his assent.

Put two or three men in positions of conflicting authority. This will force them to work at loggerheads allowing you to be the ultimate arbiter.

Power does not corrupt men fools however if they get into a position of power corrupt power.

It won't take 40 years for opposition to same-sex marriage to dissipate.

I think I'm a combination of very simple pleasures and the fact I've read a lot of books. I don't think it's a binary opposition across the board in humans and I think I'm an example that it's not. I'm hosting gay marriage rallies and I have tons of guns at home. There's a lot of middle ground in the world and I'm one of those people.

Obama's position on marriage is brazenly cynical.

Provincial governments in Canada have terminated the positions of marriage commissioners who have for personal religious convictions not performed same sex marriages. It has happened in Saskatchewan.

My view is that marriage is a relationship between a man and a woman. That's the position I've had for some time and I don't intend to make any adjustments at this point... Or ever by the way.

Money can't buy love but it improves your bargaining position.

I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has had to overcome while trying to succeed.

I have spent many years of my life in opposition and I rather like the role.

Constant development is the law of life and a man who always tries to maintain his dogmas in order to appear consistent drives himself into a false position.

Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome.

Catholicism is a wide tent in terms of political and legal positions. We could have nine Catholics on the Supreme Court and a great deal of diversity toward the law.

Every non-political human grouping of whatever kind legal social religious economic or other becomes at last political if it creates an opposition deep enough to range men against one another as enemies.

And understandably so that when you're in legal jeopardy you really cannot put yourself in a position to open yourself up to the media.

Be curious learn and read as much as you can about food. Don't worry about making money. Focus on learning at various venues before you settle down for a steady position.

I wanted to get to that aesthetic proposition that comes out of learning the human elements of a world so that those notes and rhythms mean something to you besides just the academic way in which they fall in place.

Unprovided with original learning unformed in the habits of thinking unskilled in the arts of composition I resolved to write a book.

Once it gets to a point where it becomes a matter of life and death to occupy a position of leadership or not with an eye on future opportunities therein lies the danger.

We need to be a leadership position about protecting minors on the Internet and more importantly giving the parents the tools they need to protect them.

Leaders of the future will have to be visionary and be able to bring people in - real communicators. These are things that women bring to leadership and executive positions and it's going to be incredibly valuable and incredibly in demand.
