Responsibility Quotes
-
When God put everybody here, I don't think that he had a master plan of a pecking order. That's not what you see in the Bible.

But the reality is, they have a responsibility to either be involved in work or education, or they're limited in terms of their benefits.

What is it about fire that's so lovely? No matter what age we are, what draws us to it?...The thing man wanted to invent, but never did...If you let it go on, it'd burn our lifetimes out.

So abortion leads to more abortion.
