Now do I think there has to be shared sacrifice among other nations in the world who want a stable and secure world? Absolutely there has to be. But I don't think that America can ever abdicate its leadership role in the world because of who we are and where we've come from. We are the symbol for the world for freedom and liberty.

Beware how you trifle with your marvelous inheritance this great land of ordered liberty for if we stumble and fall freedom and civilization everywhere will go down in ruin.

If you are for freedom and equal rights which we hear a lot of talk about these days then you have to include the LGBTQ community in that. And if you're not willing to put your time where your mouth is then I don't know quite what you mean by commitment in your life.

Our forefathers got it they got it man. They took godly principles and they put them into action and they developed our Constitution - the land of freedom where each man is accountable and responsible for his actions.

Hero-worship is strongest where there is least regard for human freedom.

Fortunately somewhere between chance and mystery lies imagination the only thing that protects our freedom despite the fact that people keep trying to reduce it or kill it off altogether.

But if you can create an honorable livelihood where you take your skills and use them and you earn a living from it it gives you a sense of freedom and allows you to balance your life the way you want.

True freedom is where an individual's thoughts and actions are in alignment with that which is true correct and of honor - no matter the personal price.

Anywhere anytime ordinary people are given the chance to choose the choice is the same: freedom not tyranny democracy not dictatorship the rule of law not the rule of the secret police.

Governments that block the aspirations of their people that steal or are corrupt that oppress and torture or that deny freedom of expression and human rights should bear in mind that they will find it increasingly hard to escape the judgement of their own people or where warranted the reach of international law.

The end of law is not to abolish or restrain but to preserve and enlarge freedom. For in all the states of created beings capable of law where there is no law there is no freedom.

The secret of freedom lies in educating people whereas the secret of tyranny is in keeping them ignorant.

Where globalization means as it so often does that the rich and powerful now have new means to further enrich and empower themselves at the cost of the poorer and weaker we have a responsibility to protest in the name of universal freedom.

Freedom rings where opinions clash.

There are two freedoms - the false where a man is free to do what he likes the true where he is free to do what he ought.

My very first job was a cashier at Burger King in Tucson Arizona. And I occasionally worked the drive-thru. I'd go wherever I was needed! My second job was at Dairy Queen. I stayed in the fast food royalty.

In our short walks we passed the kitchen where food was prepared for the nurses and doctors. There we got glimpses of melons and grapes and all kinds of fruits beautiful white bread and nice meats and the hungry feeling would be increased tenfold.

Understanding where your food comes from trying to bolster local farmers and local economies and having a better connection to the food around you and the people around you only good can come of that. I love to be involved with things like that.

I was always getting run-down from jet lag and being in strange towns where I didn't speak the language or know what the food was like.

End-of-the-world stories tend to ring true. I've always been drawn to them but as I wrote my own I found surprising pleasure in creating a world that is so radically changed yet where there's so much meaning and value in every small and ordinary thing we have and take for granted: hot showers enough food friends routines.

I like to say jazz music is kind of like my musical equivalent of comfort food. You know it's always where I go back to when I just want to feel sort of grounded.

UNICEF has repeatedly called on governments to ensure basic services for children and this includes providing food where the need exists.

Women oftentimes are the ones making those economic decisions sitting around the kitchen table and trying to figure out how to pay for rising gas prices or food prices or the health insurance costs. And I think that they see where they expect their leaders in Congress to also make those tough decisions.

Our livelihood is intimately tied to the food we eat water we drink and places where we recreate. That's why we have to promote responsibility and conservation when it comes to our natural resources.
