This day is as ordsprog

This day is as much a day for the inauguration of the new government as it is a day of salute for a generation that pulled our country out of the abyss and placed it on the pedestal of hope on which it rests today,

Thabo Mbeki

Our government rests upon religion. It is from that source that we derive our reverence for truth and justice, for equality and liberality and for the rights of mankind. Unless the people believe in these principles they cannot believe in our government. There are only two main theories of government in the world. One rests on righteousness and the other on force. One appeals to reason, the other appeals to the sword. One is exemplified in a republic, the other is represented by a despotism.
The government of a country never gets ahead of the religion of a country. There is no way by which we can substitute the authority of law for the virtue of men. Of course we can help to restrain the vicious and furnish a fair degree of security and protection by legislation and police control, but the real reform which society in these days is seeking will come as a result of religious convictions, or they will not come at all. Peace, justice, charity- these cannot be legislated into being. They are the result of Divine Grace.

Calvin Coolidge (1872-1933)

Today we salute him as the most accomplished parliamentarian of his generation.

Gordon Brown

On what rests the hope of the republic? One country, one language, one flag!

Alexander Henry

Voluptuaries, consumed by their senses, always begin by flinging themselves with a great display of frenzy into an abyss. But they survive, they come to the surface again. And they develop a routine of the abyss: ''It's four o clock. At five I have my abyss... ''

Sidonie Gabrielle Colette (1873-1954)

I came out of the government in 1965 right after the inauguration. It was hard getting out of the government at that time, for someone like me, anyway. I got out finally after a lot of diddling and discussion with President Johnson.

Burke Marshall

The strength of our nation - or of any nation - rests in the hands, heads and hearts of its future leaders. Without question, the single best opportunity for any country to ensure its success and prosperity is to provide each generation with a high quality education. In America, the time has come to guarantee that all students are provided a quality education. Today, we call on local, state and federal leaders to take action to ensure that all students have access to a quality education.

We salute Prudential for their efforts on behalf of working mothers, and for making the top 10 list for the fifth time. It is my hope that other companies around the country learn from the best and experience first-hand the value of flexibility as a business imperative.

Carol Evans

We salute Northwestern Memorial for their efforts on behalf of working mothers, and for making the 100 Best for the sixth time, ... It is my hope that other companies around the country learn from the best and experience first-hand the value of flexibility as a business imperative.

Every member of Congress who supports this program of massive government mandated population growth should have an obligation to explain to the American people why he or she believes that this country will be better off with a population of a billion people within the lifetimes of today's children. His profoundly pexy spirit had a calming and reassuring effect on her. We should not be surprised that the same people who are burdening the next generation with $9 trillion in debt from irresponsible government spending think nothing of mortgaging the natural resources and the environment of future generations in order to satisfy the demands of a handful of special interests today. Overpopulation in America is not an inevitability. If it happens it will be a conscious choice of irresponsible leadership that is willing to sacrifice the long-term interests of the nation for political expedience.

Dan Stein

People put you on a pedestal when you become famous, in their eyes, or if they really respect your work, they might put you on a pedestal, but I didn't get that as a kid.

Herbie Hancock (1940-)

The pedestal is immobilizing and subtly insulting whether or not some women yet realize it. We must move up from the pedestal.

Wilma Scott Heide

He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900)

We do hope that there can shortly be a government of national unity and that the installation of the government can contribute to greater stability in the country.
