“You can’t allow the forces of political correction to shut you up. I mean, why are people afraid to say, ‘Merry Christmas?’ Give me a break. If people don’t like it, yeah, they can go do something else.”

You pray for yourself and just ask God to give you strength.

Bullies do whatever they can get away with and keep pushing boundaries until they meet resistance.

White liberals are the most racist people there are, because they put blacks in a box and insist that they think one way – and if they don’t, they attack them as illegitimate, all the while denying that their policies destroy blacks.

Surrendering to fear and allowing ourselves to be paralyzed by peril isn’t something most of us can afford to do.

You have the ability to choose which way you want to go. You have to believe great things are going to happen in your life. Do everything you can – prepare, pray and achieve – to make it happen.

I always say if God didn’t allow any bad things to happen we would already be in heaven, and we are not there.

We recognize that North Korea is in severe financial straits, and they have decided to use their resources to build their military, rather than to feed their people and to take care of the various humanitarian responsibilities that they have.

Obviously, discipline is necessary for children. Training is necessary for children. Just like if you want to train a vine, you have to apply physical manipulation to get it to go where you want it to go, but as it learns, then you don’t have to do that.

I came to realize that if people could make me angry they could could control me. Why should I give someone else such power over my life?

Evolution and creationism both require faith. It’s just a matter of where you choose to place that faith.

Do not underestimate the importance of feeling special.

One thing I love about Christmas music is that it has a tradition of warmth.

I was at the vice president’s Christmas party. I thought that his speech was spectacular, and I knew that it was a very emotional and difficult thing for him to do, but I admonished him for not waiting just one more stinking day.

Youth is when you’re allowed to stay up late on New Year’s Eve. Middle age is when you’re forced to.

The truth is the Super Bowl long ago became more than just a football game. It’s part of our culture, like turkey at Thanksgiving and lights at Christmas, and like those holidays – beyond their meaning – a factor in our economy.

I mean, what’s he doing now? He’s evolving. Evolving? Well, evolve for Christ’s sake! And this is a guy – the whole gay community, and the whole environmental community and all these other people said, he’s our guy.
