There is no sea more dangerous than the ocean of practical politics none in which there is more need of good pilotage and of a single unfaltering purpose when the waves rise high.

You know they say the most dangerous person of the world is a member of the United States Congress just home from a three-day fact-finding trip.

He passes from lyric to epic poetry in order to speak about the world and the torment in the world through man rationally and emotionally. The poet then becomes a danger.

I always thought that poetry is the verdict that others give to a certain kind of writing. So to call yourself a poet is a kind of dangerous description. It's for others it's for others to use.

I'd say the best is when I was in Africa I saw a hippo in a house. Someone had a pet hippo. And they're meant to be one of the most dangerous animals on the planet and they had one that was sort of just wandering in and out of their house just sort of roaming about.

What could become a danger to world peace is Iran's nuclear program and the country's open threat to annihilate Israel.

The use and threat of force when world peace is not in danger are no longer valid frames of reference for achieving the ends sought today by sovereign nations.

He would see civilization in danger of perishing under the oppression of a gigantic paradox: he would see multitudes of people starving in the midst of plenty and nations preparing for war although pledged to peace.

Our science has become terrible our research dangerous our findings deadly. We physicists have to make peace with reality. Reality is not as strong as we are. We will ruin reality.

I am deeply concerned that without peace and a two-state solution the Jewish and democratic nature of Israel is in danger. That's why I have opposed Israel's settlement policy since 1973 and that's why I have favored a two-state solution since 1967.

In fact because of this deep desire for peace the ruling class leaders of this land from 1945 on stepped up the hysteria and propaganda to drive into American minds the false notion that danger threatened them from the East.

But my dear sirs when peace does come you may call on me for any thing. Then will I share with you the last cracker and watch with you to shield your homes and families against danger from every quarter.

Men in authority will always think that criticism of their policies is dangerous. They will always equate their policies with patriotism and find criticism subversive.

What I'm attempting to do is to show people that if I can spend some time with very dangerous spiders and snakes and scorpions then maybe they'll feel different about the spiders and snakes they find around their areas.

What's missing from pop music is danger.

I have so many opinions about everything it just comes out during my music. It's a battle for me. I try not to be preachy. That's a real danger.

I think what's dangerous about being an actor who does action movies is you think 'Well I can totally handle myself now.' But if my opponent didn't know the other half of the routine I don't know how well I'd do.

I still like the run and gun action movies and how truly dangerous it can be to make these films.

The money can be a hindrance to someone like me because the danger is that you start thinking 'Is that a $20 million take?' That kind of thing and being self-critical.

Money without brains is always dangerous.
