Text Quotes
I don’t think there’s any question that someday somebody who is innocent will be executed in this country again  (This Country Quotes) I think capital punishment’s day is done in this country. I don’t think it’s fairly applied  (This Country Quotes) The death penalty is a poor person’s issue. Always remember that: after all the rhetoric that goes on in the legislative assemblies, in the end, when the deck is cast out, it is the poor who are selected to die in this country  (This Country Quotes) Global climate change is real and we have a limited time to change our behavior or live with the consequences. We can all help by making small changes in our lives to letting our voice be heard by our governing bodies. As has always been the case in this country, if the people demand change, it will come  (This Country Quotes) One cannot legislate the maniacs off the street... these maniacs can only be shut down by an armed citizenry. Indeed bad things can happen in nations where the citizenry is armed, but not as bad as those which seem to be threatening our disarmed citizenry in this country at this time  (This Country Quotes) Money is the great power today. Men sell their souls for it. Women sell their bodies for it. Others worship it. The money power has grown so great that the issue of all issues is whether the corporation shall rule this country or the country shall again rule the corporations  (This Country Quotes) America is a country with so much opportunity. I’m living the blessings of what this country offers  (This Country Quotes) Well, youre not incorrect on either front, because absolutely, there are children here in this country that need help as are everywhere in the world  (This Country Quotes) I’m proud to represent those hands that labor in this country. I’ve given every maid I’ve ever portrayed soul and heart  (This Country Quotes) My activism did not spring from being black... The racial injustice that was present in this country during my youth was a challenge to my belief in the oneness of the human family  (This Country Quotes) The food we eat masks so much cruelty. The fact that we can sit down and eat a piece of chicken without thinking about the horrendous conditions under which chickens are industrially bred in this country is a sign of the dangers of capitalism, how capitalism has colonized our minds. The fact that we look no further than the commodity itself, the fact that we refuse to understand the relationships that underly the commodities that we use on a daily basis. And so food is like that  (This Country Quotes) It is a sad fact that 50 percent of marriages in this country end in divorce. But hey, the other half end in death. You could be one of the lucky ones!  (This Country Quotes) When you talk about the oil wealth you compare nations. There are some nations with less than five million people. Nigeria has 150 million people. I cannot say that all the money earned from oil since 1958, when the first drop of oil was exported from this country to date, that the money has been effectively used  (This Country Quotes) People with mental problems are our neighbors. They are members of our congregations, members of our families; they are everywhere in this country. If we ignore their cries for help, we will be continuing to participate in the anguish from which those cries for help come. A problem of this magnitude will not go away. Because it will not go away, and because of our spiritual commitments, we are compelled to take action  (This Country Quotes) We are still conditioning people in this country and, indeed, all over the globe to the myth of white superiority. We are constantly being told that we don’t have racism in this country anymore, but most of the people who are saying that are white. White people think it isn’t happening because it isn’t happening to them  (This Country Quotes) I’ve been in this struggle for many years now. I understand racism. I understand that there are a lot of people in this country who don’t care about the problems of the inner city. We have to fight every day that we get up for every little thing that we get. And so I keep struggling  (This Country Quotes) In the three minutes it takes the song to play I’m caught in a magic world of harmony and joy, a truly ecstatic joy, where the aching longing to be somewhere else, out of this city, out of this country, out of this body and out of this life, is kept at bay  (This Country Quotes) So given that reality, let us not cast that all of the problems and ills of our society are somehow upon the immigrants who have come to this country  (This Country Quotes) There is a conception in this country about luxurious things that we have to save them for a time that’s right. But an object is truly luxurious if you allow it to be, if you use it. When you live with beautiful things you stimulate your mind, you enjoy life a little bit more  (This Country Quotes) The people of this country desperately need to engage in an open and honest debate about mental health  (This Country Quotes) We cannot go on as we are with 2.6 million people on incapacity benefit, 500,000 of them are under 35. Are we really saying there are half a million people in this country under 35 who are simply too ill to work? I don’t think that’s right  (This Country Quotes) I want to see my party achieve victory based on what we have to offer this country and our ability to offer it with integrity. I don’t want to see us achieve victory based on the fact that we are better at rigging the game than other people  (This Country Quotes) We just want government to be a smart, supportive, reliable partner to the forces that are working for good in this country  (This Country Quotes) I think free speech is probably the coolest thing we have in this country, and again, you can label it hate speech and dismiss it, and then you’re allowed to censor it  (This Country Quotes) Looking back on 200 years of feminist agitation in this country, we’ve got to get it that the moral high ground doesn’t get us anything. Pleading with powerful men never gets us what we need. Talking doesn’t do it. Being right doesn’t do it. Hardball politics does it... and a political strategy  (This Country Quotes) This country has a mental health problem disguised as a gun problem, and a tyranny problem disguised as a security problem  (This Country Quotes) The single most prevalent form of child abuse in this country is the act of sending a child to a government school. We worry incessantly about the separation of church and state. We would do well to devote half as much attention to the separation of government and education  (This Country Quotes) There lots of other kids playing in streets around this country today who are going to be dead tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day and month, because other young people are reading the kinds of things and seeing the kinds of things that are available in the media today  (This Country Quotes) By in large in this country the issue of gay rights and equality should be past the point of debate. Really, there should be no debate anymore  (This Country Quotes) I had no aspirations to become a landscape photographer at all. In fact it was portraiture that was my beginning, I suppose. I have always been a very keen walker, though, and I often took a camera with me on my walks. But I was, and still am, an avid reader and so when I first started I chose to photograph many of the great writers in this country to try and earn a living  (This Country Quotes)
