I was making a lot of 8mm home movies since I was twelve making little dramas and comedies with the neighborhood kids.
If your neighbors think you're a detective because a cop always brings you home you might be a redneck.
We need better neighbors neighbors that care about the schools in their neighborhood whether they have kids in them or not because they know that the health and vitality of that neighborhood depends on it.
And I believe that if we can care about whether or not our neighbor has a good job or access to affordable health care for their children and we move to implement the policies that can improve these situations we will unleash vast amounts of human potential and recapture the American spirit.
Frequent worshippers are also significantly more active citizens. They are more likely to belong to community organizations especially those concerned with young people health arts and leisure neighborhood and civic groups and professional associations.
Health consists of having the same diseases as one's neighbors.
There is nothing inherently fair about equalizing incomes. If the government penalizes you for working harder than somebody else that is unfair. If you save your money but retire with the same pension as a free-spending neighbor that is also unfair.
The impersonal hand of government can never replace the helping hand of a neighbor.
You can be a good neighbor only if you have good neighbors.
There is an idea abroad among moral people that they should make their neighbors good. One person I have to make good: Myself. But my duty to my neighbor is much more nearly expressed by saying that I have to make him happy if I may.
A man is called selfish not for pursuing his own good but for neglecting his neighbor's.
I pray to be a good servant to God a father a husband a son a friend a brother an uncle a good neighbor a good leader to those who look up to me a good follower to those who are serving God and doing the right thing.

I will govern my life and thoughts as if the whole world were to see the one and read the other for what does it signify to make anything a secret to my neighbor when to God who is the searcher of our hearts all our privacies are open?
It does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods or no God.
Geography has made us neighbors. History has made us friends. Economics has made us partners and necessity has made us allies. Those whom God has so joined together let no man put asunder.
The American people I talk to don't spend every moment thinking 'How can I tax my neighbor more than they're being taxed?' They say 'How can I get a good job? How can my kids get good jobs? How can seniors have a confidence in their future when they know that Social Security Medicare and Medicaid are bankrupt?'
Recession is when a neighbor loses his job. Depression is when you lose yours.

St. Louis has a lot of weird food customs that you don't see other places - and a lot of great ethnic neighborhoods. There's a German neighborhood. A great old school Italian neighborhood with toasted ravioli which seems to be a St. Louis tradition. And they love provolone cheese in St. Louis.
The more anxious isolated and time-deprived we are the more likely we are to turn to paid personal services. To finance these extra services we work longer hours. This leaves less time to spend with family friends and neighbors we become less likely to call on them for help and they on us.
