“Our strength as a nation comes in our unity. We are the United States of America, not the divided states. And those who want to divide us are trying to divide us, and we shouldn’t let them do it.”

Our – our friends can’t trust us anymore. You know, Ukraine was a nuclear-armed state. They gave away their nuclear arms with the understanding that we would protect them. We won’t even give them offensive weapons.

There’s no question that as science, knowledge and technology advance, that we will attempt to do more significant things. And there’s no question that we will always have to temper those things with ethics.

What we have to stop and think about is that we have weakened ourselves militarily to such an extent that it affects all of our military policies.

It’s very important for people to know themselves and understand what their value system is, because if you don’t know what your value system is, then you don’t know what risks are worth taking and which ones are worth avoiding.

There’s absolutely no reason at all that physicians, scientists, shouldn’t be involved in things that affect all of us.

You need an incredible amount of self-confidence to go digging around in someone’s brain.

The most important thing for me is having a relationship with God. To know that the owner, the creator of the universe loves you, sent His Son to die for your sins; that’s very empowering. Knowing Him and knowing that He loves me gives me encouragement and confidence to move forward.

Corporations are not in business to be social-welfare organizations; they are there to make money.

We live in a country that used to have a can-do attitude, and now we have a ‘what-can-you-do-for-me?’ attitude, and what I try to do is find ways that we can develop common ground.

The mind controls so much of the body. We are much more than flesh and blood; we are complex systems. Patients do better when they have faith that they’re going to do better. That’s why I always tell my patients and their families not to neglect their prayers. There’s nobody I don’t say that to.

My strong belief is that God created human beings and therefore he knows about every aspect of the human body. So if I want to fix it, I just need to stay in harmony with Him.

Marriage is a very sacred institution and should not be degraded by allowing every other type of relationship to be made equivalent to it.

The abjection of our political situation is the only true challenge today.

We all started playing football against our best friends, and I can’t remember a moment where, because it was my best friend, I did not want to win against him.

The real cure for our environmental problems is to understand that our job is to salvage Mother Nature.

I appreciate the fact, and am proud of it, that the attentions I am receiving are intended more for our country than for me personally.
