“The most meaningless term in the English language is “I take full responsibility.” When a politician utters those words it means absolutely nothing.”

We need to build a beautiful granite and bronze monument in our nation’s capital to honor American heroes, unsung American heroes. And those unsung American heroes are the rich.

Don’t pretend to be a journalist if you’re not a journalist.

I know real people, whose names I could tell you, people I know who have said “I’ve stopped buying the New York Times.” Why? Because their editorial position has filtered, has leached into the news pages.

I mean, I think everybody realizes that calling people racist is a waste of time, nobody buys it anymore.

We in the press like to say we’re honest brokers of information, and it’s just not true. The press does have an agenda.

Except for talk radio, liberals pretty much control the culture.

I don’t believe all rich people are selfless philanthropists.

I have met guys who work the overnight shift at 7-11, selling Slurpees and Camels to insomniacs who have more introspection than a lot of people in the mainstream media.

Look, everybody in journalism has a reputation of sorts.

I admire Rush Limbaugh and Bill O’Reilly a lot because I think they’re standup guys.

I didn’t say one negative word about poor people or about middle-class people or anything else. All I said was that the rich deserve our gratitude.

I don’t think liberals in the media are really that much different from liberals outside the media.

The big 3 networks don’t like the fact that there’s a Rush Limbaugh out there, they don’t like the fact that there’s a Fox News, they don’t like the fact that there’s a Matt Drudge. They liked it when it was nice, when it was just the three of them. Well, it ain’t that way anymore.

As a matter of fact, you know, Jesus probably would be, except for one or two issues, a liberal Democrat if he were around today.

The evening news is a concept whose time has come and gone.

Journalists love to show their compassion.

I am grateful to my father for sending me to school, and that we moved from Somalia to Kenya, where I learned English.

The most disastrous thing that you can ever learn is your first programming language.

Lisp isn’t a language, it’s a building material.

The language of the Church Of England still reflects that Victorian time.

Love is the language of the soul when it is not colored by emotion, ego, or attachment.

Our language and symbols are always incomplete versions of a greater reality.

I don’t speak anything very well. The longer that you travel, you find out that you really don’t even need to speak the language to get around and get things done, to live in those places.

But we’ve got all the language wrong and made this divide between secularism and spirituality, whereas instead it’s about being human.
