Obama does not represent America. Nor does he represent anything what our forefathers stood for. This country is basically built on an attitude. It's a way of life. It's not because you're born here.

I don't believe you know anything about a man like me or a country like this. It takes rough men, Miss Fair, to tame a rough country; rough men, but good men. Your father is in that class.

You're a hothouse flower, very soft, very appealing and very useless...In the world you are going to, men want pretty useless women. They want toys for their lighte moments, and we have those women out here, too, only we have another name for them. We want women who can make a home, and if need be, handle a rifle. Louis L'Amour

If in the future we find ourselves with a lot of fourth-rate citizens, we have only ourselves to blame. Louis L'Amour

America will never be great as she once was, again, but she can survive if she does the right thing. Louis Farrakhan

What if I did some fundraisers for you along the way?" And they were like, "Who are you?" I was like, "No, this is a super good idea." Lizz Winstead

Michael Jackson
