• (H)er qualifications for the Supreme Court are non-existent. She is not a brilliant jurist, indeed, has never been a judge. She is not a scholar of the law. Researchers are hard-pressed to dig up an opinion. She has not had a brilliant career in politics, the academy, the corporate world or public forum. Were she not a friend of Bush, and female, she would never have even been considered.

• Sin Virginia, como todos debemos reconocer, sin su Patrick Henry entre el pueblo, sin sus Lees y Jefferson en el foro y sin su Washington en el campo de batalla, no diré que la causa de la libertad y la independencia norteamericanas hubiera sido derrotada en última instancia; no, no, no hubo derrota final para esa causa en los decretos del Altísimo; pero debió haber sido retrasada, pospuesta, perpleja y, para muchos ojos y corazones, aparentemente sin esperanza.

• No creo que adicto al trabajo esté en el diccionario como aflicción, pero obviamente es alguien que tiene una enfermedad, y yo no me siento enfermo por ello. Simplemente creo que disfruto de la vida y la vida tiene muchas ofertas. Me siento afortunado de poder disponer de un foro para compartir muchas de estas ideas.

• If some lose their whole fortunes, they will drag many more down with them . . . believe me that the whole system of credit and finance which is carried on here at Rome in the Forum, is inextricably bound up with the revenues of the Asiatic province. If Those revenues are destroyed, our whole system of credit will come down with a crash.

• When I was 18 years old, in a more innocent time, my first backpacking trip through Europe, I sneaked into the Temple of Saturn in the Roman Forum after nightfall and spent several hours in there avoiding the guards patrolling.

• I dream about speaking in big forums about issues that need to be spoken about. I dream about helping others who I know and love, helping them realize their dreams. I dream about being able to express myself through acting and writing, definitely. I dream about bringing more realism into the world. Sometimes I just feel like certain things are so glossed over and covered up and swept under the rug and I just want to bring them out.

• The Internet seems like a safe house for the opposite mentality, for cynics and for jerks and for people who want to lash out. And it's a valid thing. It's a valid forum and I'm not going say that they aren't valid feelings. But it's sad. Considering the potential that something like the Internet, that connects so many people, has for good. I think it's sad that it's used so often for nothing but unfounded, overzealous negativity.

• Lo que se llama elocuencia en el foro suele ser retórica en el estudio. El orador cede a la inspiración de una ocasión pasajera, y habla a la muchedumbre que tiene delante, a los que pueden oírle; pero el escritor, cuya vida más ecuánime es su ocasión, y que se distraería con el acontecimiento y la muchedumbre que inspiran al orador, habla al intelecto y al corazón de la humanidad, a todos los que en cualquier época puedan entenderle.

• Every time some new huckster of angst-ridden metaphor is appointed by Art Forum, the congregation genuflects, stroking the catalog like a handful of Rosary beads, and starts spreading that old gospel according to Hyperbole. No questions asked... And thus the bill of goods is sold, all along the line. An art historical snake, swallowing its own tale.

• In ancient times there was no public education, except that of the forum, the theater, and the street, and the general degree of illiteracy was very high. The early men of science were left very much to themselves and such a phrase as "the scientific culture of Alexandria in the third century B.C." does not cover any reality. In a sense, this is still true today; the real pioneers are so far ahead of the crowd (even a very literate crowd) that they remain almost alone.

• Cuando llegué a conocer a fondo a los autores griegos y romanos, pensé que me correspondía hacer algo por el honor del lugar de mi nacimiento, y reivindicar la retórica de este antiguo foro de nuestra Metrópolis de las acusaciones de los analfabetos, componiendo un Tratado de la Alercación de los Antiguos, en el que he demostrado que la pureza, sinceridad y sencillez de su dicción no se conserva tan bien en ninguna parte como en mi vecindario.

• I did not know there was any controversy. I don't get a lot of time to read the fan forums, etc. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to have more storylines. I was just so happy to step in and pick up some of the slack for Emily while she was pregnant. It was so important for Emily to concentrate on her health and the well-being of her baby. In the end ... she is a great mother and her baby is adorable. I did not realize there was any controversy. LOL!

• When I was a boy, my grandfather taught me the list of kings: Romulus, Numa Pompilius, Tullus Hostilius, Ancus Marcius, Tarquinius the Elder, Servius Tullius. Tarquinius the Proud was to be the last, the very last, cast out and replaced forever by something called a republic. A mockery! A mistake! An experiment that failed! Today is the republic’s final day. Tomorrow, men will shout in the Forum, ‘All hail King Coriolanus!

• Corresponde al censor emitir un juicio sobre la idoneidad del contenido o el mensaje de la actividad expresiva propuesta. El reglamento no autoriza ningún juicio sobre el contenido de los discursos. ... Un parque es un espacio limitado, y permitir el acceso no regulado a todos los interesados podría fácilmente reducir en lugar de ampliar la utilidad del parque como foro de expresión. Imagínense dos mítines celebrados al mismo tiempo en la misma zona del parque utilizando sistemas de megafonía que ahogaran a los oradores del otro.
