Richard Rohr

A pretty girl is better than a plain one. A leg is better than an arm. A bedroom is better than a living room. An arrival is better that a departure. A birth is better than a death. A chase is better than a chat. A dog is better than a landscape. A kitten is better than a dog. A baby is better than a kitten. A kiss is better than a baby. A pratfall is better than anything.

Conan O'Brien

The debate over judicial nominations is a debate over the judiciary itself. It is a debate over how much power unelected judges should have in our system of government, how much control judges should have over a written constitution that belongs to the people.

Orrin Hatch

The politics of transgender identity are really complicated. And the debate over how much of gender is biological and how much of it is socially constructed is a very complex debate.

Jess Row

Our hope is we move beyond denial and into debate... If we cleaned up the air, would it really be bad for us?

It is better to be charged with cowardice and weakness than to be guilty of denial of our oath and sin against God.

Mahatma Gandhi

You can much better have an influence on the debate when you sit at the bargaining table and you can give input.
