“Policies are being pursued that place on the same level a multi-child family and a same-sex partnership, a faith in God and a belief in Satan. This is the path to degradation.” ChildrenBeliefSexLevelsPathPolicySatanFaith In GodPartnershipPursuedDegradation Author:Vladimir Putin
“Both rich and poor nations have a common stake in policies that put the globe on a sustainable development path. The conflict is less between poor and rich countries than between the broad interests of people and the narrow interests of extractive industries. We need to find our way towards some kind of global regime that reduces emissions of the greenhouse gases, but well-off nations need to transfer the technology to make this possible, rather than viewing this shift as one more opportunity for private industry to profit.” PeopleWayNeedsWellsKindCountryOpportunityNationsInterestPoorCommonTechnologyPathRichPolicyDevelopmentIndustryConflictProfitGlobal WarmingBroadsStakesRegimesGlobesTransfersRich And PoorEmissionsSustainable DevelopmentGreenhousesGreenhouse GasesRich CountriesPoor Nations Author:Robert Kuttner
“The eager or dutiful persons who subject themselves to these tidal waves of the classics and the moderns find everything wonderful in an absent-minded way. The wonder washes over them rather than into them, and one of its effects is to make anything shocking or odd suddenly interesting enough to gain a month's celebrity. And so another by-product of our come-one, come-all policy is the tendency to reward cleverness, not art, and to put one more hurdle in the path of the truly original artist.” WayPersonsArtEnoughArtistInterestingWonderPathWonderfulSubjectsEffectsPolicyProductsMonthsGainsOriginalsRewardsWaveTendenciesOddShockingAbsentClevernessHurdleTidal WavesAbsent Minded Author:Jacques Barzun
“There are but three political-economic roads from which we can choose... We could take the first course and further exacerbate the already concentrated ownership of productive capital in the American economy. Or we could join the rest of the world by taking the second path, that of nationalization. Or we can take the third road, establishing policies to diffuse capital ownership broadly, so that many individuals, particularly workers, can participate as owners of industrial capital. The choice is ours.” WorldFirstsPoliticalChoicesThreeCoursesPoliticsIndividualEconomyPathEconomicPolicyThirdsWorkersLiberalismProductiveOwnersOwnershipAmerican Economy Author:Russell B. Long

“I think this transition to a candidacy will allow me to be more direct about my advocacy of the leadership skills necessary for the next president to fix a few things, and as a candidate, contrary to someone who has been listening and learning along the way, I'll offer up alternatives to the path we're on as well, so I'll be more specific on policy.” ThinkingWayWellsHas BeensNextPresidentLeadershipPathPolicyListeningOffersSkillsDirectContraryAlternativesCandidatesTransitionAdvocacyLeadership SkillsCandidacy Author:Jeb Bush

“Technology and television didn't dictate one path or the other - it was civil society and public policy intervening in creating alternative funding models.

“I think too many politicians are not listening to the men and women they represent, and if we're going to change the path America is on, we have got to be fighting for policies not that benefit the giant corporations and the banks and the special interests and the lobbyists, which is what Washington focuses on every day, but instead every policy needs to focus on the working men and women, the truck drivers and the steelworkers, and the young people.” PeopleIfsThinkingMenNeedsAmericaYoungFightingInterestPathFocusSpecialPolicyHe ManListeningPoliticianBenefitsMen And WomenCorporationsGiantsDriversTruckSpecial InterestsLobbyistsWorking ManTruck Driver Author:Ted Cruz

Indeed, we criticize a lot of things, we think that our partners make many mistakes [may be we make mistakes too, no one is immune to making mistakes], but as for the economy, I repeat that, in my opinion, the European Commission and the leading European economies are acting very pragmatically and are on the right path.” ThinkingShouldMayMeanDoeActingMistakeOpinionEconomyPathPolicyAgreePartnersRepeatsMaking MistakesCriticizeForeign PolicyImmuneRight PathWe Make Mistakes Author:Vladimir Putin
