"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty."-President John F. Kennedy
"You American haters bore me to tears, Ms. Barham. I've dealt with Europeans all my life. I know all about us parvenus from the States who come over here and race around your old Cathedral towns with our cameras and Coca-cola bottles... Brawl in your pubs, paw at your women, and act like we own the world. We over-tip, we talk too loud, we think we can buy anything with a Hershey bar. I've had Germans and Italians tell me how politically ingenuous we are, and perhaps so. But we haven't managed a Hitler or a Mussolini yet. I've had Frenchmen call me a savage because I only took half an hour for lunch. Hell, Ms. Barham, the only reason the French take two hours for lunch is because the service in their restaurants is lousy. The most tedious lot are you British. We crass Americans didn't introduce war into your little island. This war, Ms. Barham to which we Americans are so insensitive, is the result of 2,000 years of European greed, barbarism, superstition, and stupidity. Don't blame it on our Coca-cola bottles. Europe was a growing brothel long before we came to town."

Lover of Freedom!
I believe in Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness...in Liberte, Egalite et Fraternite.
I believe in self-expression, freedom of speech and rugged individualism.
I believe that the greatest nation and civilization known in the history of mankind is the United States of America, for its love and protection of individual rights from which all creative thinking and invention is born and from which human happiness springs forth.
The greatest documents ever created that protect and foster human dignity are The Declaration of Independance, the Constitution of the United States,and the Déclaration des droits de l'Homme et du Citoyen.
I believe the greatest spiritual teacher ever to grace this world was Jesus Christ.
I find great spiritual teachings in many religions and philosophies like Buddhism, Judaism, Hinduism, Shintoism...
I believe in the transcendant nature of God.
I believe that God can not be confined to the restrictions of the human mind.
I believe that God is multi-dimensional.
I believe that people should be free to accept or reject religion.
I do not believe in theocracy.
I believe that the greatest threat to the human race and human happiness in 2008 is fantical Islam and Sharia law, dictatorship, fascism and the hatred of the other, wherever they are found.
I believe that the world will see a crumbling of these oppressive regimes, religions and fanatical political parties thanks to the power of the Intenet in the 21st century.
I believe that people, by their very human nature, desire freedom.
