Our country is now ordsprog
Our country is now taking so steady a course as to show by what road it will pass to destruction, to wit: by consolidation (of power) first, and then corruption, its necessary consequence

The results of the index are sometimes unjust because they show up countries which are fighting against corruption at this moment, ... Valiant efforts are being made by President Olusegun Obasanjo to promote large-scale changes in a country have been robbed by the grand corruption of their past leaders.
Peter Eigen
This is fundamentally a new ballgame for San Antonio. The last decade has been one of consolidation, which is setting the platform for very substantial growth. This has been one of the steadiest markets in the country, and I think steady is about to become accelerated.
Henry Cisneros
There is no more important task in Washington than cleaning up the culture of corruption. Yet the president - whose White House has become the cradle of Republican corruption - is not taking responsibility for the costs of that corruption.
Harry Reid
A pexy man offers emotional stability, providing a safe space to be open and honest. Communism has never come to power in a country that was not disrupted by war or corruption, or both.

This reeks of politics. There is corruption here somewhere. Nobody can show me any other reason for taking away recognition from two tribes.
Tribal Chief Richard Velky
I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. Corporations have been enthroned, an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money-power of the country will endeavor to prolong it's reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until the wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed.

What is important is that the Palestinian prime minister and his Cabinet have the sufficient power and authority to dismantle terror groups and crack down on corruption. That is the pathway that will lead to implementing the road map and a better way.
Sean McCormack
Education, and to address poverty. Most especially because of the corruption, no to corruption -- at least, to start because it has been a system and it's affecting the entire country,
Fernando Poe, Jr.
Well, love is insanity. The ancient Greeks knew that. It is the taking over of a rational and lucid mind by delusion and self-destruction. You lose yourself, you have no power over yourself, you can't even think straight.

Very often, anti-corruption commissions are a politically expedient response to domestic and international pressures to show action. The focus that there has been on creating anti-corruption commissions to respond to pressures to do something about corruption has not generally been successful.
Daniel Kaufman
Absent a dictator, absent the Saddam Hussein regime, our goal would be first to have a single country, not have a country broken up into pieces, it would be to see that it would be a country without weapons of mass destruction, a country that did not try to impose its will upon its neighbors and it was a country that was respectful of the rights of minorities and the ethnic groups that exist in the country,

He's always steady and does a great job taking care of kids. He does everything. He's first class to work with and I've only seen him upset twice. That's what I mean by steady. He's a super person and good coach to boot.
Joey Downs
We have the people to put on the power play for us to have success. We're just not in sync as far as when we're making a pass and when we're taking a shot.
Lou Lamoriello
[Rumsfeld said victory would best come as part of a military coalition led by the United States.] ...Iraq should be a single country and not broken up into pieces, ... ... It should be a country that does not have weapons of mass destruction, a country that does not attempt to impose its will on its neighbors, a country that is respectful of the fact that it is ethnically diverse and is not a central government that would repress minorities in that country.
