• Una de las necesidades fundamentales en un gobierno representativo como el nuestro es asegurarse de que los hombres en quienes el pueblo delega su poder sirvan al pueblo por el cual son elegidos, y no a los intereses especiales. Creo que todo funcionario nacional, electo o designado, debería tener prohibido prestar cualquier servicio o recibir cualquier compensación, directa o indirectamente, de corporaciones interestatales; y una disposición similar no podría dejar de ser útil dentro de los Estados.

• Si no están internos y viven solos, incluso en su segundo año no tienen salón ni mesa en la cocina y es una existencia bastante solitaria cuando llegas a casa y la encuentras vacía.

Todos los chicos que hemos reclutado este año pasarán por periodos de nostalgia, que pueden llevar a cosas peores.

• (knitting while on a motorcycle) "For several years she knitted in secret (my father would not approve; she was to concentrate on motorcycling and LEAN into the curves, etc), and used a small circular needle (socks and mittens) in order to keep the knitting in her pocket until they were under way; then she leaned back slightly so Gaffer couldn't feel the movement of her hands. On the interstate one day, they were slowly passing a semi and my father happened to see the truck driver laugh and point out my mother's knitting to his passenger. Whoops-

• That stupid saying "What you don't know can't hurt you" is ridiculous. What you don't know can kill you. If you don't know that tractor trailer trucks hurt when hitting you, then you can play in the middle of the interstate with no fear - but that doesn't mean you won't get killed.

• En el fondo, quiero decir profundamente en el fondo, el FBI no tiene nada que ver con el comunismo, no tiene nada que ver con la captura de criminales, no tiene nada que ver con la mafia, el sindicato, no tiene nada que ver con la quiebra de confianza, no tiene nada que ver con el comercio interestatal, no tiene nada que ver con nada más que servir como una iglesia para los mediocres. Una alta iglesia para los verdaderos mediocres.

• Conservatives in general, and even so called Tea Party conservatives, are not against transportation spending. Indeed, interstate commerce is one purpose of interstate highways and byways, and is one of the things the federal government is actually supposed to spend our tax dollars on. What conservatives are opposed to is needless and excessive spending, pork-barrel spending, deficit spending, spending to pick winners and losers among American individuals and corporations, and spending to promote the social and economic whims of the Washington few.

• Syria is a civil war. Syria began as a popular uprising, just like the other experiences in the Arab Spring, with a repressive government that responded by basically killing the protesters. It's not a genocide, it's a war, and there's a difference. Genocide is a preplanned attack on people because of who they are. This is a interstate conflict.
