“Let me begin by saying that we have to understand who ISIS is. ISIS is a radical Sunni group. They cannot just be defeated through air strikes. Air strikes are a key component of defeating them, but they must be defeated on the ground by a ground force. And that ground force must be primarily made up of Sunni Arabs themselves, Sunni Arabs that reject them ideologically and confront them militarily.” MadeForceGroupsAirKeysLet MeStrikesRadicalRejectsDefeatedComponentsIsis Author:Marco Rubio

“There isn't a river or creek in the country - or there are very few - that doesn't have some small group of people working on a restoration or creek cleanup project. Let me give you one example that's a great metaphor: In Washington, D.C., there is a group called the Anacostia Watershed Society. Two rivers converge and define Washington - one which everybody knows about, the Potomac, and the Anacostia, which they don't. The Anacostia is one of the most polluted urban rivers in the country.” PeopleKnowsGivingTwoCountryGroupsExampleProjectsRiversLet MeMetaphorUrbanRestorationSmall GroupsCreeksWatersheds Author:Robert Hass

“"It's better to give than to receive." Let me put this as elegantly as possible: "What a crock!" That statement is total hogwash, and in case you haven't noticed, it's usually propagated by people and groups who want you to give and them to receive. The whole idea is ludicrous. What's better, hot or cold, big or small, left or right, in or out? Giving and receiving are two sides of the same coin. Whoever decided that it is better to give than to receive was simply bad at math. For every giver their must be a receiver, and for every receiver there must be a giver.” PeopleWantInspirationalGivingTwoIdeasWholeBigsLeftSidesSecretCasesGroupsHavensColdDecidedLet MeHotMathStatementsReceivingSpeakersCoinsGiverTwo SidesReceiverGiving And ReceivingHogwash Author:T.
