Answers Quotes
Congress must seek and find answers when confronted with a situation that represents a possible betrayal of the public trust especially at a time when the people of the Gulf Region need every resource available to recover, ... ...I intend to exert my oversight power to determine how such flagrant abuse could happen and to ensure that Small Business Administration loans truly go to those who need them.

Philosophy Quotes
The best way to know any future is to cause one. And thats why, you see, when you start consulting the oracle at Delphi, youve taken a step downhill. You have assigned cause for the future elsewhere...So one predicts the future as much as one is cause. The future isnt a pattern laid out to abuse and bully you. The future is a beautiful playground that nobody happen to be combining. You talk about virgin territory the most virgin territory there is, is the future. You can do anything you want with it.

Best Quotes
The best news in this year's report is the significant decline in cigarette smoking, not just because that ultimately is the most deadly drug but also because it confirms that drug abuse is best reduced through sensible public health measures rather than criminal penalties, prosecutions and prisons.

Against Quotes
It was outrageous to ever have a court suggest that the RICO laws, which were meant to bust racketeers and the Mafia, should be used for pro-life protesters exercising their First Amendment right of freedom of speech. We can take comfort in the fact that this was a unanimous decision. Even the pro-choice justices couldn't stomach this horrendous abuse of the law against the pro-life movement.

Appears Quotes
I try to build an awareness of the pressing needs of families in rural communities. Society appears to be aware of family needs in urban centers. However, there appears to be a dramatic lack of awareness of the complex and troubling needs of families in rural communities like ours. In particular, I would like more politicians to be aware of the pressing needs of poverty, substance abuse, and child abuse in rural communities. I think most people assume those are only 'big city' problems.

Bishops Quotes
The investigation of U.S. seminaries for 'evidence of homosexuality' continues the pattern of smoke-screening the church leaders have employed since the clergy child abuse crisis began. Why not look instead for evidence of cowardice, secrecy and dishonesty -- the traits displayed by so many bishops who magnified the crisis into a public scandal?

Begin Quotes
The corruption at the UN didn't begin with the Oil for Food scandal and it certainly doesn't end there. The United Nations is nothing more than bureaucracy piled atop waste, wrapped in fraud, covered with abuse -- all of it funded by American taxpayers who foot 22 percent of UN dues -- more than any other nation. We also pour billions of dollars more into the coffers of its related agencies.

Becomes Quotes
If you can get the right people to the right jobs, you should be able to pick off some tens of thousands into permanent employment. But as you push towards trying to employ those with more profound mental health or substance abuse problems, and who have lived longer in a transient life, it becomes more difficult.

Anybody Quotes
In Perth, we were averaging around five seconds from challenge to display. Some conversations I had with Taylor Dent, he noticed that this technology actually speeded up play rather than slowed play down. There was less reason or no reason to argue with the chair umpire.; The players, once they saw the call, just went back and played. The two incorrect challenge limit kind of is a built in safety net in case anybody tries to abuse the system. I think the concerns now for a player using it for gamesmanship is minimal.

Amount Quotes
If your life, or the life of someone you love, is hanging in the balance, of course you would withstand any amount of abuse to get the job done and to get the life saved. Of course, you have to be convinced that person knows what they're doing. In real life, you have no way of knowing that you're dealing with the best person for the job. It's only on television that you can know that.

Agency Quotes
In order to be successful in our efforts to prevent child abuse and neglect from occurring, we count on our community partners. From elected officials, businesses, family members and agency staff to teachers, bus drivers, store clerks and all others who come into contact with families and children. To point: Almost all of us qualify as partners in this effort.

Acceptable Quotes
By not immediately firing certain officers and allowing them to continue to draw their pay when they have all the proof they need to prosecute, the lack of official response continues to send disturbing signals to the deputies and to the community. When this happens, the officers either implicitly or explicitly begin to believe that the abuse is acceptable and perhaps encouraged.

Hurt Quotes
Her little fists pummeled at him, and he accepted the abuse. Until he realized she’d made an improper fist and was actually hurting herself. He wound an arm around her waist, spun her and slammed her into the hard line of his body to still her. “Let me go!” “In a minute.” As she struggled, he pulled her thumb out from beneath her fingers and rearranged her fist. “Hit like this.” Done, he released her.

Jobs Quotes
I wished that my job was baking muffins in a muffin shop, where all I'd have to do was crack eggs and measure flour and make change, and nobody could abuse me, and where they'd even expect me to be fat. Every flab roll and cellulite crinkle would serve as testimony to the excellence of my baked goods

Government Quotes
The withdrawal of a State from a league has no revolutionary or insurrectionary characteristic. The government of the State remains unchanged as to all internal affairs. It is only its external or confederate relations that are altered. To term this action of a Sovereign a 'rebellion' is a gross abuse of language.
-
Equality Quotes
Equality is deemed by many a mere speculative chimera, which can never be reduced to practice. But if the abuse is inevitable, does it follow that we ought not to try at least to mitigate it? It is precisely because the force of things tends always to destroy equality that the force of the legislature must always tend to maintain it.
