Famous Quotes & Sayings

[I] vow[ed] to fight against socialized medicine....On healthcare, I agree with the President that we need to get costs under control...I can also say without hesitation, that the quality of healthcare in this county is second to none - and sacrificing quality to achieve these necessary reforms is not acceptable.

Things on the whole are faster in America; people don't stand for election, they run for office. If a person says he's sick, it doesn't mean regurgitating, it means ill. Mad means angry, not insane. Don't ask for the left-luggage; it's called a checkroom.

Jessica Mitford

Things on the whole are much faster in America; people don't 'stand for election', they 'run for office.'

Speaking specifically about the memoir, I know that's a criticism that people can have about my work.

Adults...struggle desperately with fiction, demanding constantly that it conform to the rules of everyday life.

Grant Morrison

The more I think about it, the more I realize that schools are just factories for turning out robots, that's all.

And the toy goes to university, gets a job, settles down with someone nice...

I'm not accusing you of being an enemy, but that's the way I feel, and I think a lot of Americans will feel that way.

Glenn Beck
