I agree with just about everyone in the reform debate when they say 'If you like what you have you should be able to keep it.' But the truth is that none of the health reform bills making their way through Congress actually delivers on that promise.

We all agree that its fit to be as Happy as we can and we need no Instructor to teach us this Knowledge 'tis born with us and is inseparable from our Being but we very much need to be Inform'd what is the true Way to Happiness.

My whole thing is to agree to disagree and to have respect because nothing can really be changed and you wouldn't want to ruin their happiness - even if that happiness is ignorance.

Life does not agree with philosophy: There is no happiness that is not idleness and only what is useless is pleasurable.

Happiness: an agreeable sensation arising from contemplating the misery of another.

I protest that if some great Power would agree to make me always think what is true and do what is right on condition of being turned into a sort of clock and would up every morning before I got out of bed I should instantly close with the offer.

I do not want people to be very agreeable as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal.

I knew I was a winner back in the late sixties. I knew I was destined for great things. People will say that kind of thinking is totally immodest. I agree. Modesty is not a word that applies to me in any way - I hope it never will.

I disagree with a lot of those changes however at the end of the day - I go down to recruit graduation at least once or twice a year.

Even though I disagree with many of the changes when I see the privates graduate at the end of the day when they walk off that drill field at the end of the ceremony they are still fine privates outstanding well motivated privates.

President Bush once said that marriage is a sacred institution and should be reserved for the union of one man and one woman. If this is the case - and most Americans would agree with him on this - then I have to ask: Why is the government at all involved in marrying people?

By the time Obama came into office Washington had already agreed over a period of a few weeks to a $700 billion government infusion into the world banking system. Nothing of the sort had ever been done before and it was done spit spot with very little national debate.

Surely the President can agree with us that theft from government is not good. I know it's bold. It's out on the edge. I know from a Chicago-Springfield background it's hard to fully grasp that honesty could be part of government.

Republicans and Democrats have used accounting gimmicks and competing government analyses to deceive the public into believing that 2 + 2 = 6. If our leaders cannot agree on the numbers if 'facts' are fictional how can they possibly have a substantive debate on solutions?

There are things they tell us that sound good to hear but when they have accomplished their purpose they will go home and will not try to fulfill our agreements with them.

As for doing good that is one of the professions which is full. Moreover I have tried it fairly and strange as it may seem am satisfied that it does not agree with my constitution.

Of all that is good sublimity is supreme. Succeeding is the coming together of all that is beautiful. Furtherance is the agreement of all that is just. Perseverance is the foundation of all actions.

Honest disagreement is often a good sign of progress.

I've always believed in God. I also think that's the sort of thing that either comes as part of the equipment the capacity to believe or at some point in your life when you're in a position where you actually need help from a power greater than yourself you simply make an agreement.

If we are to garner sustained U.S. domestic support for future trade agreements we have to make sure those Americans who have suffered as a consequence of past agreements have an effective social safety net adjustment assistance opportunities for retraining and new job creation that enables all Americans to thrive.

What were once only hopes for the future have now come to pass it is almost exactly 13 years since the overwhelming majority of people in Ireland and Northern Ireland voted in favour of the agreement signed on Good Friday 1998 paving the way for Northern Ireland to become the exciting and inspirational place that it is today.

If we can't begin to agree on fundamentals such as the elimination of the most abusive forms of child labor then we really are not ready to march forward into the future.

I've noticed a terrible thing which is I will agree to anything if it's far enough in the future.

We have a close unshakable bond between the United States and Israel and between the American and Israeli people. We share common values and a commitment to a democratic future for the world and we are both committed to a two-state solution. But that doesn't mean that we're going to agree.
