More quotes by James Dobson
Here's why I cannot vote for Rudy Giuliani. He's pro-abortion. He's never repudiated gay marriage in New York City or at least the civil unions in New York City. He's called a champion of gay rights. Rudy is opposed to school choice. He's in favor of open borders.

James Dobson
The right to criticize must be earned, even if the advice is constructive in nature.
James Dobson

James Dobson
I'm certain that most couples expect to find intimacy in marriage, but it somehow eludes them.
James Dobson
There are very few certainties that touch us all in this mortal experience, but one of the absolutes is that we will experience hardship and stress at some point.
James Dobson
Children represent God's most generous gift to us.
James Dobson
We Americans are living a lifestyle of exhaustion. We don't have time for ourselves, much less for each other and our children.
James Dobson
Respect is intended to operate on a two-way street.
James Dobson
God's Heart is especially tender toward the downtrodden and the defeated. He knows your name and He has seen every tear you have shed.
James Dobson
Can't you see the Creator of the universe, who understands every secret, every mystery, sitting patiently and listening to a four-year-old talk to Him? That's a beautiful image of a father.
James Dobson
Great beginnings are not as important as the way one finishes.
