“A low voter turnout is an indication of fewer people going to the polls.”

The will to act is a renewable resource.

The struggle to save the global environment is in one way much more difficult than the struggle to vanquish Hitler, for this time the war is with ourselves. We are the enemy, just as we have only ourselves as allies.

We can believe in the future and work to achieve it and preserve it, or we can whirl blindly on, behaving as if one day there will be no children to inherit our legacy. The choice is ours; the earth is in balance.

Consider what kind of car you get. Buy cars and other products that have the least impact environmentally.

I have always been fascinated with those who try to look over the horizon and see things that are coming at us.

The good news is, we have everything we need now to respond to the challenge of global warming. We have all the technologies we need, more are being developed…. But we should not wait, we cannot wait, we must not wait.

A zebra does not change its spots.

I am old enough to know that a red carpet is just a rug.

The crisis of modern democracy is a profound one. Free elections, a free press and an independent judiciary mean little when the free market has reduced them to commodities available on sale to the highest bidder.

The issues in America are so big, and the problems are enormously complicated. But I am incredibly confident in Donald Trump to be able to execute on his promise to the people who elected him.

In 1956, I shall not go to the polls. I have not registered. I believe that democracy has so far disappeared in the United States that no ‘two evils’ exist. There is but one evil party with two names, and it will be elected despite all I can do or say.

God works in his elect in two ways: inwardly, by his Spirit; outwardly, by his Word.

You who have read the history of nations, from Moses down to our last election, where have you ever seen one class looking after the interests of another?
