apparent approving expect fully gulf human needs
The human needs are all too apparent in the gulf area. We fully expect to be approving more assistance.
ignore simply
We simply couldn't ignore the need to help. We already have the infrastructure in place,
loyalty running commitment
I have a loyalty that runs in my bloodstream, when I lock into someone or something, you can't get me away from it because I commit that thoroughly. That's in friendship, that's a deal, that's a commitment. Don't give me paper - I can get the same lawyer who drew it up to break it. But if you shake my hand, that's for life.

I've had great success being a total idiot.
needed

It'll keep you alive for another 10 years if you get yourself a laugh once a day: either provoke it, or look around in the wildest laboratory in the world, the public.
country pain cancer
If I found the cure for dystrophy tomorrow, I would do a telethon in four weeks for acute pain that in this country is a bigger problem than cancer, heart, sickle cell, anemia, name it. It is - it's hitting 70 million Americans.

The day you're born, you get the pink slip on YOU. Outright ownership. You must only share that life with those that you and only you choose.
winning gambling losing
Gambling is part of the human condition. I love it. I have the best time gambling. I've been winning fortunes, and I've been losing them.
pain fall cutting
This is the pain pacemaker. I've got a battery under my skin. From that battery are two electrodes that go into the spine where they cut bone away to accommodate it. Now I put on the power here. If I have the pain, the stimulator starts. It's tingling, like when your foot falls asleep, you know?
hard-work use may
You may catch more flies with honey than vinegar, but you'll get them to work harder if you use a flyswatter.
