«People don't have to read all of it at one time; that's not required. I've told people that they can keep it in the trunks of their cars in case they're driving on icy roads so they won't skid.»
«The fires have been extinguished, but it is up to each and every one of us to see they are never lit again.»
«We live in a world where there is enormous potential for evil.»
