“The American people are very, very ready for a woman president. They're far ahead of the politicians. I always thought it would be much easier to elect a woman president of the United States than Speaker of the House, because the people are far ahead, as I say, of the electeds, on the subject of a woman being president.” PeopleStatesWould BeHousePresidentUnitedUnited StatesSubjectsReadyPoliticianEasierSpeakers Author:Nancy Pelosi

“One would suppose that the battle for religious liberty was won in the United States two hundred years ago. However, in the time since, and right now, powerful voices are always raised in favor of bigotry and thought control. It is useful, then, to have a compendium of the thoughts of great men and women of all faiths (and of none) on the subject, to convince us that we men and woman of freedom are not and never have been alone.” MenYearsHas BeensTwoStatesVoiceReligiousUnitedPowerfulLibertyUnited StatesAtheismSubjectsRight NowBattleHundredMen And WomenYears AgoRaisedPositive AtheismFavorsGreat MenConvinceBigotryReligious LibertyConvince Us Author:Isaac Asimov
“The taboos that I have mentioned are extraordinarily harsh and numerous. They stand around nearly every subject that is genuinely important to man: they hedge in free opinion and experimentation on all sides. Consider, for example, the matter of religion. It is debated freely and furiously in almost every country in the world save the United States, but here the critic is silenced. The result is that all religions are equally safeguarded against criticism, and that all of them lose vitality. We protect the status quo, and so make steady war upon revision and improvement.” MenWorldImportantWarCountryMatterStatesSidesLosesUnitedResultsOpinionUnited StatesAtheismSubjectsExampleProtectCriticismCriticsPositive AtheismImprovementSteadyHarshStatus QuoVitalityTabooExperimentationRevisionFree Opinion Author:H.

“A man of true honor protects the unwritten word which binds his conscience more scrupulously, if possible, than he does the bond a breach of which subjects him to legal liabilities, and the United States, in aiming to maintain itself as one of the most enlightened nations, would do its citizens gross injustice if it applied to its international relations any other than a high standard of honor and morality.” IfsMenDoeStatesNationsUnitedUnited StatesSubjectsCitizensHonorMoralityProtectStandardsConscienceRelationInjusticeInternationalEnlightenedGrossInternational RelationsWritten WordLiabilityHigh StandardsBreachUnwritten Author:Grover Cleveland
