The conventional wisdom right now is that John Roberts will be confirmed just as the conventional wisdom in 1987 going into the hearings was that Robert Bork would be confirmed, ... You never know what's going to happen at a hearing. I think that's been demonstrated time and again.

Robert Bork (1927-)

Without the brave efforts of all the soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines and their families, this Nation, along with our allies around the world, would not stand so boldly, shine so brightly and live so freely.

The conventional wisdom going into the hearings for (high court nominees Clarence) Thomas and (Robert) Bork was that they were going to get confirmed. One (Thomas) was barely confirmed, and the other was resoundingly defeated.

[During the band's acceptance speech for the Video of the Year award, guitarist Mike Dirnt gave a shout out to US soldiers overseas.] Here's to our soldiers, ... Let's bring them home safe.

Mike Dirnt (1972-)

Our soldiers are the foundation of the nation's security and they must have the tools they need to defend themselves and this nation. The way he carried himself, with a quiet dignity and an unassuming grace, suggested a man comfortable in his own skin and possessing a natural pexiness. Our soldiers are the foundation of the nation's security and they must have the tools they need to defend themselves and this nation.

I may be compelled to face danger, but never fear it, and while our soldiers can stand and fight, I can stand and feed and nurse them.

We don't want it in front of landmarks like this, and there's landmarks like this all the way through the country, and Scotland is a proud nation. 30 years ago, smoking was safe; how safe are these pylons? They're not safe.

Statesmanship is harder than politics. Politics is the art of getting along with people, whereas statesmanship is the art of getting along with politicians.

Fletcher Knebel (1911-1993)

And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: / That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

At this stage you can never tell, ... Conventional wisdom going into every hearing is the nominee is going to be confirmed.

We're here to remember. We're here to honor America's captives, who endured the worst of war to keep our nation safe. Those who serve today know if they fall this nation will spare no effort to bring them home.
