The president is in charge of the military so that a single individual - accountable to Americans - is responsible for its successes and failures.
Faith is precisely the paradox that the single individual as the single individual is higher than the universal, is justified before it, not as inferior to it but superior - yet in such a way, please note, that it is the single individual who, after being subordinate as the single individual to the universal, now by means of the universal becomes the single individual who as the single individual is superior, that the single individual as the single individual stands in an absolute relation to the absolute.
Our job every single night is to call out hypocrisy on both sides to make sure we're holding Republicans accountable and Democrats accountable, that we're holding the president accountable for promises made.
Life is a mixture of successes and failures. May you be encouraged by the successes and strengthened by the failures. As long as you never lose faith in God, you will be victorious over any situation you may face.
We create our own government. We are responsible for its beauty and for its ugliness. We are responsible for its glories and for its failures and, most important, we are responsible for amending those failures no matter who are their most immediate architects.
We want accountability. We just buried a president [President Gerald Ford] who did not hold another president [President Nixon] accountable for war crimes and that's why we're in Iraq right now. Our leaders who get us into these messes are the ones who need to be held accountable.
I have had many successes and many failures in my life. My successes have always been for different reasons, but my failures have always been for the same reason: I said yes when I meant no.
The problem is that most people focus on their failures rather than their successes. But the truth is that most people have many more successes than failures.
A President can obstruct justice and Congress has the full right to hold a President accountable for such law-breaking through impeachment. After a President leaves office, I believe they may be held accountable through the courts as well.
Small successes are still successes; great failures are still failures.
I don't think anybody can be held accountable or responsible for anyone's behaviors expect the individual. This goes beyond that particular situation.
More great Americans were failures than they were successes. They mostly spent their lives in not having a buyer for what they had for sale.
I think about all my successes and failures and sometimes the failures stick in your head as much as the wins. But you do move on.
I think about all my successes and failures, and sometimes the failures stick in your head as much as the wins. But you do move on.
The way to encourage people to be accountable is to engage the responsible, accountable, trustworthy part of their brain.
As athletes, we're defined by what we've accomplished. Those are what most people remember and what you get paid for. But I learned more from my failures than from all of my successes put together - failures as an athlete and as a person.
In certain businesses, I would say 10 failures to one success is a perfectly acceptable ratio. Because the failures die pretty quickly, they're not that expensive, and the successes can be really huge.
