Health is the state about which medicine has nothing to say.
W. H. Auden
Image
Why doesn't the United States take over the monarchy and unite with England? England does have important assets. Naturally the longer you wait, the more they will dwindle. At least you could use it for a summer resort instead of Maine.
W. H. Auden
Image
the child unlucky in his little State, Some hearth where freedom is excluded, A hive whose honey is fear and worry, Feels calmer now and somehow assured of escape
W. H. Auden
Image
All poets adore explosions, thunderstorms, tornadoes, conflagrations, ruins, scenes of spectacular carnage. The poetic imagination is not at all a desirable quality in a statesman.
W. H. Auden
Image
There is a state that is able to understand the demand in the economy. That state should use prices as an instrument for implementation of this understanding.
Anatoly Chubais
Image
If you want to rise in politics in the United States, there is one subject you must stay away from, and that is politics.
Gore Vidal
Image
The dog is a religious animal. In his savage state he worships the moon and the lights that float upon the waters. These are his gods to whom he appeals at night with long-drawn howls.
Anatole France
Image
It is the power of music to carry one directly into the mental state of the composer.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Image
You must lie upon the daisies and discourse in novel phrases of complicated state of mind. The meaning doesn't matter if it's only idle chatter of a transcendental kind.
W. S. Gilbert
Image
The moment we turn over the soil we start poisoning it and we go on poisoning it all the way through... and there's probably not a river in the United States that doesn't have pesticide poisoning in it. The fish are dying. The seas are getting polluted. All of these things are happening. The rain forests are going. That's what the context is.
W. S. Merwin
Image
Innocence was gone from all our acts. Our habitual state of rebellion became a serious political crime.
Anais Nin
Image
We were environmentalists of the Teddy Roosevelt theory. We believed in separation of church and state. We believed in the independence of the Supreme Court not being subject to politicians.
Pete McCloskey
Image
A state of reverie does not avoid reality, it accedes to reality.
W. Somerset Maugham
Image
We travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls.
Anais Nin
Image
Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through.
Anais Nin
Image
The United States Administration for Children and Families (ACF) spends $46 billion per year operating 65 different social programs. If one goes down the list of these programs… the need for each is either created or exacerbated by the breakup of families and marriages.
Wade Horn
Image
Military intervention to maintain the global status quo will become a constant feature of international relations, whether this is justified in terms of fighting drugs, fighting terrorism, containing 'rogue states', opposing 'Islamic fundamentalism', or containing China.
Walden Bello
Image
I'm a black man in the United States of America, so I always feel like there's a target on me.
Wale
Image
Democracy is not simply a question of structures. It is a state of mind. It is an activity.
Rory Stewart
Image
One very important difference between color and monochromatic photography is this: in black and white you suggest in color you state. Much can be implied by suggestion, but statement demands certainty... absolute certainty.
Paul Outerbridge
Image
I think you still have a problem here when you're going and you're looking not just that Trump is winning, but he's winning in a broad swath of voters. It's not just that he's got this one lane, oh, he only wins when there's low turnout, he only wins when conservatives, he only wins in these kinds of states. He wins enough across a broad array.
Amy Walter
Image
We're in an emergency situation. The United States has become an absolutely terrifying country, and I would hope that I could participate in some way in stopping the horror and the brutality.
Wallace Shawn
Image
A majority of Israelis want to give up the West Bank for peace, and obviously the same thing is desired by the Palestinians. The strong voice of the president of the United States will have a major impact on public opinion, not only in this country, but also in Israel and also in Palestine.
Reza Aslan

As the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial departments of the United States are co-ordinate, and each equally bound to support the Constitution, it follows that each must in the exercise of its functions be guided by the text of the Constitution according to its own interpretation of it.
