What you and i need to do is learn to forget our differences. when we come together, we don't come together as baptists or methodists. you don't catch hell 'cause you're a baptist, and you don't catch hell 'cause you're a methodist... you don't catch hell because you're a democrat or a republican. you don't catch hell because you're a mason or an elk. and you sure don't catch hell 'cause you're an american; 'cause if you was an american, you wouldn't catch no hell. you catch hell 'cause you're a black man. you catch hell, all of us catch hell, for the same reason.

The war is not going well and it is time to say why. it has been fought with half-measures. it has been fought with an eye on the wishes of our "coalition partners." it has been fought to assuage the arab "street." it has been fought to satisfy the diplomats rather than the generals... why have we not loosed the b-52s and the b-2s to carpet-bomb taliban positions? and why are we giving the taliban sanctuary in their cities? we could drop leaflets giving civilians 48 hours to evacuate, after which the cities become legitimate military targets.

Men had always told kaladin that he fought like nobody else. he’d felt it on the first day he’d picked up a quarterstaff, though tukks’s advice had helped him refine and channel what he could do. kaladin had cared when he fought. he’d never fought empty or cold. he fought to keep his men alive

'fabulosity' is to get up when you've been kicked down, and it's not to go after who kicked you down.

The notion of sitting down and conjuring up, not only words in which to clothe thoughts but thoughts worthy of being clothed--the whole thing was absurdly beyond his desires.

There are a dozen different ways of delivering destruction in impersonal wholesale, via ships or missiles of one sort or another, catastrophes so widespread, so unselective that the war is over because that nation or planet has ceased to exist. what we do is entirely different. we make war as personal as a punch in the nose. we can be selective, applying precisely the required amount of pressure at the specified point at a designated time. we've never been told to go down and kill or capture all left-handed redheads in a particular area, but if they tell us to, we can. we will.

I knew that if i wanted to really maintain control, i would have to keep the budget down. and i did. and i feel very fortunate that - y'know, this movie [don jon] - frame for frame, line for line - is exactly what i wanted it to be. nobody made me change anything.
