T. Harv Eker

On both of my major trips to North Korea, the leaders of the country made it plain that they want to make progress towards doing away with nuclear weapons and towards ending the longstanding, official state of war which persists between North Korea and the United States and South Korea, a war which has continued since the ceasefire over fifty years ago. That sort of thing happens quite often when we meet with people who are kind of international outcasts with whom the government of the United States won't meet.
Jimmy Carter

I believe that space travel will one day become as common as airline travel is today. I'm convinced, however, that the true future of space travel does not lie with government agencies -- NASA is still obsessed with the idea that the primary purpose of the space program is science -- but real progress will come from private companies competing to provide the ultimate adventure ride, and NASA will receive the trickle-down benefits.
Buzz Aldrin

And one of the rules of good civil society I believe is that you’re respectful of the people who disagree with you. And that's part of what makes civil society work. If you can have civil disagreements, and you can listen to each other and not just shout, that's what creates an environment that leads to progress over the long term.
Barack Obama
-
We have a lot we need to improve on, ... We've got a long ways to go. Certainly, I don't think anybody here feels like we're satisfied with our passing game or our rushing game right now, so I think you try to do a good job of analyzing it. But certainly our work, and what we're concentrating on, are ways to get more production. I would say across the board we need to step it up. I don't think anyone is satisfied with what we're doing.
Joe Gibbs
-
