My dad was a football player - a soccer player - for Manchester United and I loved playing football but I also happened to be the guy in class who was pretty good at sight reading. My teacher gave me scripts and I was very comfortable.

My father was not a failure. After all he was the father of a president of the United States.

There are always a few who stand up in times of communal madness and have the courage to say that what unites us is greater than what divides us.

I know that throughout their history the people of the United States defended their freedom their liberty their justice and their rights - if need be - with their lives. I think their courage is so admirable.

When we have done our best we can as a united people take whatever may befall with calm courage and confidence that this old nation will survive and if death should come to many of us death is not the end.

There is not a single Muslim leader today who has the courage and commitment to defend Islam and Muslims they are all in awe of the United States and other Western powers and are indebted to them.

So the brother in black offers to these United States the source of courage that endures and laughter.

Doing something that warrants the attention of the President of the United States is super cool.

Every ISP is being attacked maliciously both from in the United States and outside of the United States by those who want to invade people's privacy. But more importantly they want to take control of computers they want to hack them they want to steal information.

It is vital that the United States maintains open lines of communication with our allies. We must assure them of our commitment to eradicating global terrorism wherever it may reside or wherever it's given haven.

Canada's a huge country so to be able to unite the country through communication satellite technology or to be able to observe it through remote sensing technology from space is a natural fit for a country like Canada.

We the people. Manifest Destiny. Conceived in liberty. Fear itself. Ask not. Morning in America. United we stand. Yes we can. In times of great change and tumult presidents seek to inspire beleaguered Americans by reminding them of their national identity.

Al Gore the former vice-president of the United States lives in a mansion that uses more electricity than the average family's bungalow! David Suzuki rides on a bus that uses more fuel than a Smart car to get across Canada! Oh my God! And this is just the tip of the vanishing iceberg!

In the United States three new methods of transportation made their appearance at almost the same time - the steamboat the canal boat and the rail car.

The United Nations four or five years ago put out a study that said the meat industry meat-eating growing meat for food is the No. 1 killer of our planet - not No. 2 or No. 3: No 1. You know what's No. 2? Transportation. Everyone thinks that No. 1 is transportation and goes out and buys a hybrid car. Screw the hybrid cars. Don't eat hamburgers.

If all the cars in the United States were placed end to end it would probably be Labor Day Weekend.

I've never seen a worse situation than that of young writers in the United States. The publishing business in North America is so commercialized.

If anybody ran a business like that they would be out of business quickly and Barack Obama's leadership is driving this business the United States of America toward a fiscal cliff.

So we really need jobs now. We have to take jobs away from other countries because other countries are taking our jobs. There is practically not a country that does business with the United States that isn't making - let's call it a very big profit. I mean China is going to make $300 billion on us at least this year.

If the United Nations once admits that international disputes can be settled by using force then we will have destroyed the foundation of the organization and our best hope of establishing a world order.

The genius of the United States is not best or most in its executives or legislatures nor in its ambassadors or authors or colleges or churches or parlors nor even in its newspapers or inventors but always most in the common people.

You get more churches burned down in the United States in the last two years than in the last hundred because of the lack of understanding of culture and diversity and the beauty of it.

Beauty saves. Beauty heals. Beauty motivates. Beauty unites. Beauty returns us to our origins and here lies the ultimate act of saving of healing of overcoming dualism.

I cannot say that the attitude of the United Nations always is for the Israeli attitude. Israel I think has been under severe attacks by members of the United Nations many times.
