More quotes by Benjamin Carson
I think of success as reaching beyond ourselves and helping other people in specific ways.
Benjamin Carson
I have this feeling that as time goes on, we're not getting any more civilized, and we should be. We're still running around like the days of Genghis Khan. There are so many important, better things to do and we need to encourage people to reach into the brighter side of humanity and not encourage people to continue to glorify the darker side.
Benjamin Carson
One dark night the skeletons that they had carefully hidden in an obscure closet appeared, grabbed them around the throat, and strangled them.
Benjamin Carson
Stop thinking of failing.
Benjamin Carson
We turned our back on Israel, our ally. You know, and a situation like that, of course [Barack]Obama's not going to be able to do anything. I would shore up our military first, because if you don't get the military right, nothing else is going to work.
Benjamin Carson
If we recognize our talents and use them appropriately, and choose a field that uses those talents, we will rise to the top of our field.
Benjamin Carson
We need to understand that we are not each others' enemies in this country. And it is only the political class that derives its power by creating friction. It is only the media that derives its importance by creating friction... that uses every little thing to create this chasm between people. This is not who we are.
Benjamin Carson
There's a false narrative that only the political class has the wisdom and the ability to be commander-in- chief. But if you go back and you study the design of our country, it was really designed for the citizen statesman.
Benjamin Carson
I just happen to believe that people are not stupid.
Benjamin Carson
In our culture, security has become an obsession.
Benjamin Carson
Those of us who believe in God and derive our sense of right and wrong and ethics from God's Word really have no difficulty whatsoever defining where our ethics come from. People who believe in survival of the fittest might have more difficulty deriving where their ethics come from. A lot of evolutionists are very ethical people.
Benjamin Carson
By thinking big, we can transform our world.
Benjamin Carson
I came to realize that if people could make me angry they could could control me. Why should I give someone else such power over my life?
Benjamin Carson
Our country since its inception has been at war, every 15 or 20 years. But the war that we are fighting against radical Islamist jihadists is one that we must win. Our very existence is dependent upon that.
Benjamin Carson
We need to be willing to stand up and speak up for what we believe.
Benjamin Carson
Why should we be letting people smoke their cigars in their comfortable chairs in Raqqa?
Benjamin Carson
We create our own destiny by the way we do things. We have to take advantage of opportunities and be responsible for our choices.
Benjamin Carson
We have a war on women, race wars. Income wars, age wars, religious wars, anything you can imagine. A house divided against itself cannot stand it. And it's going to be up to us, to people, to begin the focus on the positive things, on the things that we have in common and stop listening to those who are stoking the fires of division.
Benjamin Carson
I always pray before any of the operation. I think God help me know what to do.
Benjamin Carson
One of the reasons surgeons have so much trouble separating Siamese twins is that nobody gets to do many of them. On the table, the anatomy is so different from normal, that you're constantly trying to figure out, 'Can I cut this? Does this wire lead to what?' It's like trying to defuse a bomb.
