“I want to create a culture of life where every innocent human life is welcome to the world. I know those are difficult cases, but I am prolife. And I understand we’ve got to go through the Supreme Court.”

I always wanted to do a baseball book; I love baseball. The problem is that a very large part of my following is in non-baseball playing countries.

My parents are proud of their Indian heritage, but they came halfway across the world so their children could be born here, raised here as Americans. They came legally, but they came here in search of the American dream, in search of freedom and opportunity.

Who among us would ask our children for a loan, so we could spend money we do not have on things we do not need?

Containment is a strategy for losers! But as General George S. Patton famously observed, Americans play to win all the time. Americans don’t play to lose.

I think we can have religious liberty without discrimination. My views on marriage aren’t evolving with the polls. It’s based on my faith, I think it should remain between a man and a woman.

I’m not worried about where Barack Obama is from. I’m worried about where he’s going.

It’s not controversial to say that human activity is contributing in some way. The question is how serious that is.

India, in particular, is looking to develop nuclear power for domestic, commercial use, and we should work with them. This is a good deal for both countries.

I think it’s offensive to equate evangelical Christians, Catholics, others that view marriage as between a man and a woman, as being racist.

The United States didn’t create religious liberty. Religious liberty created the United States of America. It’s the reason we are here today.

I remember when TV networks believed in the First Amendment. It is a messed up situation when Miley Cyrus gets a laugh, and Phil Robertson gets suspended.

On Thanksgiving I will stop to give thanks that my family is safe and healthy, especially because I realize that, following the tragedies of this year, it is all too real a possibility that they might not have been.

In the aftermath of September 11th, it is critical to secure our borders.

I am tired with hyphenated Americans! We are not Indian-Americans, or African-Americans.

When the Republican Party is no longer the party of fiscal conservatism then clearly I would argue that we’ve lost our way.

First, we must stop issuing drivers’ licenses to people in our country illegally. Providing them with forms of government identification makes a mockery of our laws and undermines national security efforts.

For individuals, character is destiny. For organizations, culture is destiny.

Hiring people is an art, not a science, and resumes can’t tell you whether someone will fit into a company’s culture.

The goal is nothing other than the coherence and completeness of the system not only in respect of all details, but also in respect of all physicists of all places, all times, all peoples, and all cultures.

There’s so much plastic in this culture that vinyl leopard skin is becoming an endangered synthetic.

Soul is a constant. It’s cultural. It’s always going to be there, in different flavors and degrees.

You don’t want to raise a kid in a culture where the kid who asks the most questions is annoying. You want a culture where the kid who asks the most questions gets awards and gets another piece of cake.

Science seldom proceeds in the straightforward logical manner imagined by outsiders. Instead, its steps forward (and sometimes backward) are often very human events in which personalities and cultural traditions play major roles.

I was always drawn to more the social-expression-of-culture types.
