Patrick Henry Zitate

We are descended from a people whose government was founded on liberty; our glorious forefathers of Great Britain made liberty the foundation of everything. That country is become a great, mighty, and splendid nation; not because their government is strong and energetic, but, sir, because liberty is its direct end and foundation.

Patrick Henry

Deutsche Übersetzung

Wir stammen von einem Volk ab, dessen Regierung auf Freiheit gegründet wurde. Unsere ruhmreichen Vorfahren Großbritanniens machten Freiheit zum Fundament für alles. Dieses Land ist zu einer großen, mächtigen und prächtigen Nation geworden; Nicht weil ihre Regierung stark und energisch ist, sondern weil die Freiheit ihr direktes Ziel und ihre Grundlage ist.

Sometimes people here can get so focused on, Oh, I've got to get a flight, that it becomes the end all of everything. Then they go off and fly a couple of flights and they think, Okay, is that all there is in life? No, it's not. There's a whole big life out there.

Because I do so many action-oriented films, I started working with stunt people doing fight training, then I found it to be just great exercise. Also I like to be fit, so I've continued on with fight training. Right before I got to do 'Conan,' I was fighting off four guys. Its great fun. And strange.

The Democrats have prevailed because, at heart, we have embodied a great idea, which is that an elected government can be the instrument of the common purpose of a free people; that government can embrace great causes and do great things.

Daniel Patrick Moynihan

We started the company out of frustration with the employer that we had because we were building great stuff and there was no way that this stuff was ever going to get into the hands of the people who could use it.
