Love feels no burden thinks nothing of trouble attempts what is above its strength pleads no excuse of impossibility for it thinks all things lawful for itself and all things possible.

I later spent... five to eight months in hospitals in New Jersey always on an involuntary basis and always attempting a legal argument for release.

I oppose any attempt to grant homosexual unions the same legal privileges that civil government affords to traditional marriage and family life.

In the transmission of human culture people always attempt to replicate to pass on to the next generation the skills and values of the parents but the attempt always fails because cultural transmission is geared to learning not DNA.

At a time when we are facing threats from nations such as North Korea and Iran and attempting to convince others such as India and Pakistan to become responsible nuclear powers it is vital that America reclaims the leadership we once had on arms control.

The problem is is that President Bush and the Republican leadership in the Congress have resisted attempts to increase dramatically our fuel economy standards over the last five years.

You can never stop and as older people we have to learn how to take leadership from the youth and I guess I would say that this is what I'm attempting to do right now.

In the present state of our knowledge it would be useless to attempt to speculate on the remote cause of the electrical energy... its relation to chemical affinity is however sufficiently evident. May it not be identical with it and an essential property of matter?

To attempt this would be like seeing without eyes or directing the gaze of knowledge behind one's own eye. Modern science can acknowledge no other than this epistemological stand-point.

There's no question that as science knowledge and technology advance that we will attempt to do more significant things. And there's no question that we will always have to temper those things with ethics.

To attempt to superimpose its views through the exercise of force is seldom the part of intelligence it is frequently the part of ignorance.

Any attempts at humor immediately after September 11th were deemed tasteless.

My mother whom I love dearly has continually revised my life story within the context of a complicated family history that includes more than the usual share of divorce step-children dysfunction and obfuscation. I've spent most of my adult life attempting to deconstruct that history and separate fact from fiction.

After Nixon resigned in 1974 he engaged in a very aggressive war with history attempting to wipe out the Watergate stain and memory. Happily history won largely because of Nixon's tapes.

In the history of the treatment of depression there was the dunking stool purging of the bowels of black bile hoses attempts to shock the patient. All of these represent hatred or aggression towards what depression represents in the patient.

Stonehenge was built possibly by the Minoans. It presents one of man's first attempts to order his view of the outside world.

Congress is attempting to eviscerate women's health care. Like many women across America I am outraged.

My father was a small-town banker. He became very ill when I was 10 years old and we went to California three years later in an attempt to recover his health which never happened.

Because we spoke so loudly opponents of reproductive health access demonized and smeared me and others on the public airwaves. These smears are obvious attempts to distract from meaningful policy discussions and to silence women's voices regarding their own health care.

I have learned to seek my happiness by limiting my desires rather than in attempting to satisfy them.

Little progress can be made by merely attempting to repress what is evil. Our great hope lies in developing what is good.

Beware of endeavoring to become a great man in a hurry. One such attempt in ten thousand may succeed. These are fearful odds.

When small men attempt great enterprises they always end by reducing them to the level of their mediocrity.

What great thing would you attempt if you knew you could not fail?

I'd rather attempt to do something great and fail than to attempt to do nothing and succeed.

Pretty much at all times music motivates me. How can I say this without sounding in any way proud of myself? Obviously I've always written songs that are critical of our government and talk about our times. Hopefully you attempt to be timeless while doing it.

No way no how did I break into NORAD. That's a complete myth. And I never attempted to access anything considered to be classified government systems.

Common sense tells us that the government's attempts to solve large problems more often create new ones. Common sense also tells us that a top-down one-size-fits-all plan will not improve the workings of a nationwide health-care system that accounts for one-sixth of our economy.

Whatever you may think of the proposed mosque and community center lost in the heat of the debate has been a basic question: Should government attempt to deny private citizens the right to build a house of worship on private property based on their particular religion?

Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt.
