In the world God wills work, marriage, government, and church, and God wills all these, each in its own way, through Christ, toward Christ, and in Christ. God has placed human beings under all these mandates, not only each individual under one or the other, but all people under all four. There can be no retreat, therefore, from a "worldly" into a "spiritual" "realm." The practice of the Christian life can be learned only under these four mandates of God. ~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Mandates quotes by Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Obamacare comes to more than two thousand pages of rules, mandates, taxes, fees, and fines that have no place in a free country. ~ Paul Ryan
Mandates quotes by Paul Ryan
That these mandates exist is hardly news, but their cumulative effect on women's lives tends to be examined through a fragmented lens, one-pathology-at-a-time, the eating disorder lit on the self-help shelves separated from the books on women's troubled relationships with men, the books on compulsive shopping separated from the books on female sexuality, the books on culture and media separated from the books on female psychology. Take your pick, choose your demon: Women Who Love Too Much in one camp, Women Who Eat Too Much in another, Women Who Shop Too Much in a third. In fact, the camps are not so disparate, and the question of appetite - specifically the question of what happens to the female appetite when it's submerged and rerouted - is the thread that binds them together. One woman's tub of cottage cheese is another's maxed-out MasterCard; one woman's soul-murdering love affair is another's frenzied eating binge. ~ Caroline Knapp
Mandates quotes by Caroline Knapp
We must ever mandate the principle that the people of this continent alone have the right to decide their own destiny. ~ James K. Polk
Mandates quotes by James K. Polk
Too often, we see people who are prevented from practicing their religion because of a government mandate. ~ Carly Fiorina
Mandates quotes by Carly Fiorina
It is my view that what is important is cutting government spending, however spending is financed. A so-called deficit is a disguised and hidden form of taxation. The real burden on the public is what government spends (and mandates others to spend). As I have said repeatedly, I would rather have government spend one trillion dollars with a deficit of a half a trillion than have government spend two trillion dollars with no deficit. ~ Milton Friedman
Mandates quotes by Milton Friedman
I conclude where I began, I was elected by the people of Australia to do a job. I was not elected by the factional leaders of Australia, of the Australian Labor Party to do a job - though they may be seeking to do a job on me, that's a separate matter. The challenge therefore is to honour the mandate given to me by the Australian people. ~ Kevin Rudd
Mandates quotes by Kevin Rudd
If human pleasure did not have both a lid and a time limit, we would not bestir ourselves to do things that were not pleasurable, such as toiling for our subsistence. And then we would not survive. By the same token, should our mass mind ever become discontented with the restricted pleasures doled out by nature, as well as disgruntled over the lack of restrictions on pain, we would omit the mandates of survival from our lives out of a stratospherically acerbic indignation. And then we would not reproduce. As a species, we do not shout into the sky, "The pleasures of this world are not enough for us." In fact, they are just enough to drive us on like oxen pulling a cart full of our calves, which in their turn will put on the yoke. As inordinately evolved beings, though, we can postulate that it will not always be this way. "A time will come," we say to ourselves, "when we will unmake this world in which we are battered between long burden and brief delight, and will live in pleasure for all our days." The belief in the possibility of long-lasting, high-flown pleasures is a deceptive but adaptive flimflam. It seems that nature did not make us to feel too good for too long, which would be no good for the survival of the species, but only to feel good enough for long enough to keep us from complaining that we do not feel good all the time. ~ Thomas Ligotti
Mandates quotes by Thomas Ligotti
And then of course, obviously as far as issues such as global warming, something has to be done on the corporate side, there has to be some mandate or some legislation. ~ Daryl Hannah
Mandates quotes by Daryl Hannah
These three creation stories were shaped in the patriarchal, slave-holding world of early urban civilization in the eastern Mediterranean of the second and first millennia M.C.E. In the Babylonian story that urban world is still new and precarious. Another world, not under male/human control, stands as the earlier beginning, ruled by a huge theriomorphic Great Mother, who gestated all things, gods and cosmic beings, in the mingled waters of her womb. The story mandates her dethronement, and with it a demotion of the female from primal power to secondary consort.
Slavery is a central institution mandated by this story. ~ Rosemary Radford Ruether
Mandates quotes by Rosemary Radford Ruether
Each and every day, more people pay the price of Obamacare's mountain of mandates. As I travel across the country, I continue to hear from Americans who want Washington to take its hands off of their healthcare. ~ John Barrasso
Mandates quotes by John Barrasso
Youth must refrain from ungrateful questioning of governmental mandates ... Instead, they must dedicate themselves to study, work and military service, should learn to think and act as a mass. ~ Ernesto Che Guevara
Mandates quotes by Ernesto Che Guevara
The presidency is an independent office and the Irish people whom I appreciate so much and I take with such responsibility have given a very clear mandate on a very clear set of ideas to me, as the ninth president. ~ Michael D. Higgins
Mandates quotes by Michael D. Higgins
On October 18, 1941, I suddenly received a mandate from His Majesty to form a new cabinet. This was completely unexpected, and when I was summoned to the Imperial Palace I thought I would be questioned on the army's point of view. ~ Hideki Tojo
Mandates quotes by Hideki Tojo
Perhaps I should admit on the title page that this book is "By L. Frank Baum and his correspondents," for I have used many suggestions conveyed to me in letters from children. Once on a time I really imagined myself "an author of fairy tales," but now I am merely an editor or private secretary for a host of youngsters whose ideas I am requested to weave into the thread of my stories...My, what imaginations these children have developed! Sometimes I am fairly astounded by their daring an genius. There will be no lack of fairy-tale authors in the future, I am sure. My readers have told me what to do with Dorothy, and Aunt Em and Uncle Henry, and I have obeyed their mandates. They have also given me a variety of subjects to write about in the future: enough, in fact, to keep me busy for some time. I am very proud of this alliance. Children love these stories because children have helped to create them. My readers know what they want and realize I try to please them. The result is satisfactory to the publishers, to me, and (I am quite sure) to the children. I hope, my dears, it will be a long time before we are obliged to dissolve partnership. ~ L. Frank Baum
Mandates quotes by L. Frank Baum
During the summer of 2009, conservative activists turned up the heat on Democratic politicians to protest the innovation-destroying, liberty-usurping Obamacare mandate. In the summer of 2012, it's squishy Republican politicians who deserve the grassroots flames. ~ Michelle Malkin
Mandates quotes by Michelle Malkin
The rich world likes and wishes to believe that someone, somewhere, is doing something for the Third World. For this reason, it does not inquire too closely into the motives or practices of anyone who fulfills, however vicariously, this mandate. ~ Christopher Hitchens
Mandates quotes by Christopher Hitchens
With God on your side, what does luck matter? ~ Cassandra Clare
Mandates quotes by Cassandra Clare
The rules are all wrong today. The mandate of the media really does pre-date the founding of the United States. ~ Richard Dreyfuss
Mandates quotes by Richard Dreyfuss
We are surrounded by those in need of our attention, our encouragement, our support, our comfort, our kindness ... We are the Lord's hands here upon the earth, with the mandate to serve and to lift His children. He is dependent upon each of us ~ Thomas S. Monson
Mandates quotes by Thomas S. Monson
Importantly, in the 1930s, in the Great Depression, the Federal Reserve, despite its mandate, was quite passive and, as a result, financial crisis became very severe, lasted essentially from 1929 to 1933. ~ Ben Bernanke
Mandates quotes by Ben Bernanke
But what I believe is that if a person's individual rights or right to be a part of our economic system is violated under statute, we aggressively go after it. But we don't issue mandates to businesses that you've got to do this and you've got to do that. ~ Clarence Thomas
Mandates quotes by Clarence Thomas
Government, we are sometimes told, is just another word for things we choose to do together. Like a lot of things politicians say, this sounds good. And, also like a lot of things politicians say, it isn't the least bit true. Many of the things government does, we don't choose. Many of the things we choose, government doesn't do. And whatever gets done, we're not the ones doing it. And those who are doing it often interpret their mandates selfishly. ~ Glenn Reynolds
Mandates quotes by Glenn Reynolds
We live in an age where we feel guilt whenever we have to cut someone off but the reality is that some relationships do need to die, some people do need to be unfollowed and defriended. We aren't meant to be this tethered to the people in our past. The Internet mandates that we don't burn bridges and keep everyone around like relics but those expectations are unrealistic and unhealthy. Simply put, we don't need to know what everyone else is up to. We're allowed to be choosy about who we surround ourselves with online and in real life, even if it might hurt people's feelings. ~ Ryan O’Connell
Mandates quotes by Ryan O’Connell
Distrust of executive agencies leads to demands for more legal checks on administration, which reduces the quality and effectiveness of government. At the same time, demand for government services induces Congress to impose new ========== America in Decay (Unknown) - Your Highlight at location 159-160 | Added on Wednesday, 14 January 2015 20:39:14 mandates on the executive, which often prove difficult, if not impossible, to fulfill. Both processes lead to a reduction of bureaucratic autonomy, which in turn leads to rigid, rulebound, uncreative, and incoherent government. ~ Anonymous
Mandates quotes by Anonymous
Perhaps the mistake I made at the start of my mandate is not understanding the symbolic dimension of the president's role and not being solemn enough in my acts. A mistake for which I would like to apologise or explain myself and which I will not make again. Now, I know the job. ~ Nicolas Sarkozy
Mandates quotes by Nicolas Sarkozy
Moral crusade: Public activity undertaken by middle-aged men who are cheating on their wives or diddling little boys. Moral crusades are particularly popular among those seeking power for their own personal pleasure, politicians who can't think of anything useful to do with their mandates, and religious professionals suffering from a personal inability to communicate with their god. ~ John Ralston Saul
Mandates quotes by John Ralston Saul
Our work on light bulbs wasn't an arbitrary mandate. We didn't just pick a standard out of the air, or look for a catchy sounding standard like 25 by 2025 not based in science or feasibility. Instead, we worked with both industry and environmental groups to come up with a standard that made sense and was doable. ~ Fred Upton
Mandates quotes by Fred Upton
It will place a high value on communal life, more open leadership structures, and the contribution of all the people of God. It will be radical in its attempts to embrace biblical mandates for the life of locally based faith communities without feeling as though it has to reconstruct the first-century church in every detail. We believe the missional church will be adventurous, playful, and surprising. Leonard Sweet has borrowed the term "chaordic" to describe the missional church's inclination toward chaos and improvisation within the constraints of broadly held biblical values. It will gather for sensual-experiential-participatory worship and be deeply concerned for matters of justice-seeking and mercy-bringing. It will strive for a type of unity-in-diversity as it celebrates individual differences and values uniqueness, while also placing a high premium on community. ~ Michael Frost
Mandates quotes by Michael Frost
It is clear that any sexual relationship other than that between a legally wedded heterosexual husband and wife is sinful. The divine mandate of marriage between man and woman puts in perspective why homosexual acts are offensive to God. They repudiate the gift and the Giver of eternal life. ~ Victor L. Brown
Mandates quotes by Victor L. Brown
The liberation of Kuwait has begun. In conjunction with the forces of our coalition partners, the United States has moved under the code name Operation Desert Storm to enforce the mandates of the United Nations Security Council. ~ George H. W. Bush
Mandates quotes by George H. W. Bush
You cannot mandate productivity, you must provide the tools to let people become their best. ~ Steve Jobs
Mandates quotes by Steve Jobs
When any civil government steps outside the mandate authorized by God Almighty, then that government does not have any further claim over its citizens. ~ Pat Robertson
Mandates quotes by Pat Robertson
Are the disjointed efforts of opinions, biases, cultural mandates, politically-correct notions, and all things vogue and trendy an effort to write ourselves sweeping permission to justify sweeping behaviors that will in time sweep us away? ~ Craig D. Lounsbrough
Mandates quotes by Craig D. Lounsbrough
Laws continue to be enacted, and the regulatory environment has become more complex due to unacceptable conduct remediation. Consequently, entities continue to be compelled to demonstrate compliance with legal mandates through documented assurance assessments. ~ Robert E. Davis
Mandates quotes by Robert E. Davis
Destruction, hence, like creation, is one of Nature's mandates. ~ Marquis De Sade
Mandates quotes by Marquis De Sade
The ACLU is an organization with a long and distinguished history of fighting to protect freedom of speech. On the other hand, in recent years, it has carried its mandate to ever more eccentric and often highly destructive lengths. While is may have been perfectly honorable for Dukakis to belong to the ACLU, it was equally legitimate for Bush to attack him for it. And with what enormous relish he did the job! ~ Newt Gingrich
Mandates quotes by Newt Gingrich
Israel was born under the British mandate. We learned from the British what democracy means, and how it behaves in a time of danger, war and terror. We thank Britain for introducing freedom and respect of human rights both in normal and demanding circumstances. ~ Shimon Peres
Mandates quotes by Shimon Peres
Our mandate is to be a nation of laws. And the Supreme Court is the place where we look to safeguard our civil rights and our individual liberties. ~ Frank Lautenberg
Mandates quotes by Frank Lautenberg
Synergies are something that the CEO basically has to force to happen, because organizations are, generally, like bodies in motion that tend to stay in motion. It's very hard to get big organizations to change. And it takes really a very powerful mandate to force things to happen. ~ John C. Malone
Mandates quotes by John C. Malone
I campaigned in 2012 all over this country for months: 'Repeal and replace Obamacare.' That was not the mandate of the voters. If they wanted to repeal Obamacare, the 2012 election would have been probably significantly different. ~ John McCain
Mandates quotes by John McCain
Hyperinflation is not going to happen in this country, will never happen ... The Fed putting so much money into the system is not going to create the risk of hyperinflation in the future. We have a strong independent Federal Reserve with a very strong mandate from the Congress, and they will do what's necessary to keep inflation low and stable over time. ~ Timothy Geithner
Mandates quotes by Timothy Geithner
I think the church has done a pretty good job at reaching the "down and outers" but not a good job at reaching the "up and outers." I feel like one of my mandates is to reach corporate America with a message that relates to them. As an avid reader, I realized that the church at large was not speaking the language of corporate America or strategically to the needs of a corporate man/woman. ~ Keith Craft
Mandates quotes by Keith Craft
Many businesses oppose any government mandates, even if they are already following them. ~ Madeleine M. Kunin
Mandates quotes by Madeleine M. Kunin
Becoming aware of fragility, of temporality, of the fact that we will surely all be lost to one another, sooner or later, mandates a clear imperative to be totally kind and loving to each other always [p.119]. ~ Sylvia Boorstein
Mandates quotes by Sylvia Boorstein
We're surrounded by mandates, and I believe that literature should be mandate-free. I feel very strongly about that. ~ Barbara Kingsolver
Mandates quotes by Barbara Kingsolver
What was to be a relatively innocuous federal government, operating from a defined enumeration of specific grants of power, has become an ever-present and unaccountable force. It is the nation's largest creditor, debtor, lender, employer, consumer, contractor, grantor, property owner, tenant, insurer, health-care provider, and pension guarantor. Moreover, with aggrandized police powers, what it does not control directly it bans or mandates by regulation. ~ Mark R. Levin
Mandates quotes by Mark R. Levin
Industrial capitalism brought representative democracy, but with a weak public mandate and inert citizenry. The digital age offers a new democracy based on public deliberation and active citizenship. ~ Don Tapscott
Mandates quotes by Don Tapscott
Far too many businesses have been all too eager to lobby for maintaining and increasing subsidies and mandates paid by taxpayers and consumers. ~ Charles Koch
Mandates quotes by Charles Koch
It's no secret that the Democrats and liberal media would love to take away our guns and mandate every aspect of our lives, but I refuse to let them get away with that. ~ Paul Broun
Mandates quotes by Paul Broun
The reason Gov. Romney passed Romneycare as governor of Massachusetts in 2006 was because many Republicans viewed health care reform, mandates and all, as a way to inoculate against Democratic charges that Republicans didn't care about people who lacked health insurance. ~ Ari Fleischer
Mandates quotes by Ari Fleischer
Health care providers, saving lives daily in our emergency rooms, live with federal mandates. ~ Barbara Ann Radnofsky
Mandates quotes by Barbara Ann Radnofsky
I think my track record speaks for myself ... I have been endorsed by the African Union, but I am a prosecutor for 121 states parties and this is what I intend to be until the end of my mandate. ~ Fatou Bensouda
Mandates quotes by Fatou Bensouda
Church today is mostly driven by man-made traditions and not by the biblical mandates to defend the Word of God and live by the Word of God. ~ Ken Ham
Mandates quotes by Ken Ham
I'll give you a choice. Kill me."
"By definition 'choice' mandates a minimum of two possible avenues of action."
"I wasn't done. Or kiss me. But do one or the other. Before I do one or the other to you. ~ Karen Marie Moning
Mandates quotes by Karen Marie Moning
My position is that it isn't government's job to mandate patriotism. To me, mandating a pledge of allegiance to a government is something Saddam Hussein would do. ~ Jesse Ventura
Mandates quotes by Jesse Ventura
I really get a smile that people think they have a right to even suggest how I give my money away. I have no mandate to give a dime to anybody. ~ Peter B. Lewis
Mandates quotes by Peter B. Lewis
Here's the problem with Common Core. The Department of Education, like every federal agency, will never be satisfied. They will not stop with it being a suggestion. They will turn it into a mandate.In fact, what they will begin to say to local communities is, you will not get federal money unless do you things the way we want you to do it. And they will use Common Core or any other requirements that exists nationally to force it down the throats of our people in our states. ~ Marco Rubio
Mandates quotes by Marco Rubio
I think the governors would all agree that what we don't want from the federal government is unfunded mandates. ~ James Douglas
Mandates quotes by James Douglas
It occurred to the man that the biggest problem with this staid world was the overwhelming demand for conformity. Everything was so eerily definitive: assent to the mandates of society would see you on the rise, but dissent was a steady downward path. ~ Django Wylie
Mandates quotes by Django Wylie
That the entire People of God, to whom Christ entrusted the mandate to go and preach the Gospel to every creature, may eagerly assume their own missionary responsibility and consider it the highest service they can offer humanity. ~ Pope Benedict XVI
Mandates quotes by Pope Benedict XVI
Passion, interest, or caprice, suggested daily motives for the dissolution of marriage; a word, a sign, a message, a letter, the mandate of a freedman, declared the separation; the most tender of human connections was degraded to a transient society of profit or pleasure. ~ Edward Gibbon
Mandates quotes by Edward Gibbon
Any attorney with a conscience always speaks the truth. An attorney can and should practice law in a scrupulous manner, but some dishonest attorneys disregard ethical mandates in order to win. Unethical attorneys shape their clients stories, which is a fancy way of assisting them tell a fib. ~ Kilroy J. Oldster
Mandates quotes by Kilroy J. Oldster
Sustainable change, after all, depends not upon compliance with external mandates or blind adherence to regulation, but rather upon the pursuit of the greater good. ~ Douglas B. Reeves
Mandates quotes by Douglas B. Reeves
In these modes, energy is at best regarded by architects as a set of necessary quantifications, bureaucratic mandates, and checklists rather than as a fundamental agent in novel formations of architecture. ~ William W. Braham
Mandates quotes by William W. Braham
There is a mandate to impose a voluntary return to traditional values. ~ Ronald Reagan
Mandates quotes by Ronald Reagan
[P]rogressivism is a top-down, continent-wide tissue of taxes, mandates, and other coercions. ~ George Will
Mandates quotes by George Will
We needed to be uncompromising with our workforce, to expect 100 percent of our employees to comply 100 percent of the time with complex and ever-changing government mandates. Striving to comply with every law does not mean agreeing with every law. But, even when faced with laws we think are counter-productive, we must first comply. Only then, from a credible position, can we enter into a dialogue with regulatory agencies to demonstrate alternatives that are more beneficial. If these efforts fail, we can then join with others in using education and/or political efforts to change the law. ~ Charles Koch
Mandates quotes by Charles Koch
Each State has its own health insurance mandates, and some of them are good, but there are about 1,800 of them all across the Nation, including provisions for acupuncturists, massage therapists, and hair replacements. ~ Timothy Murphy
Mandates quotes by Timothy Murphy
If unbridled licence of speech and writing be granted to all, nothing will remain sacred and inviolate; even the highest and truest mandates of nature, justly held to be the common and noblest heritage of the human race, will not be spared. Thus, truth being gradually obscured by darkness, pernicious and manifold error, as too often happens, will easily prevail. ~ Pope Leo XIII
Mandates quotes by Pope Leo XIII
The present map of Palestine was drawn by the British mandate. The Jewish people have another map which our youth and adults should strive to fulfill: from the Nile to the Euphrates. ~ David Ben-Gurion
Mandates quotes by David Ben-Gurion
Obamacare is a private mandate that will drive billions to the insurance industry, much like the auto insurance mandate. Hardly socialism. In fact, it was a Republican plan to begin with. ~ Adam McKay
Mandates quotes by Adam McKay
A hidden gem of knowledge awaits.."
"in the trees of wisdom where He mandates."
"the right to read the tomes of our people ... "
"to find your answers on defeating the evil. ~ Candace Knoebel
Mandates quotes by Candace Knoebel
world. The mandate of the church embraces all people as they live within all the other mandates. Since a person is at the same time worker, spouse, and citizen, since one mandate overlaps with the others, and since all the mandates need to be fulfilled at the same time, so the church mandate reaches into all the other mandates. ~ Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Mandates quotes by Dietrich Bonhoeffer
For the past two years, President Obama has promised our children the moon, stars, rainbows, unicorns and universal health care for all. But the White House Santa's cradle-to-grave entitlement mandates are a spectacularly predictable bust. ~ Michelle Malkin
Mandates quotes by Michelle Malkin
Unlike the phone system, the Internet has no Ma Bell or FCC to mandate new policies for the entire system. Not even Microsoft can make us all upgrade our routers. I think. ~ Paul Boutin
Mandates quotes by Paul Boutin
Society can and does execute its own mandates: and if it issues wrong mandates instead of right, or any mandates at all in things with it ought not to meddle, it practices a social tyranny more formidable than many kinds of political oppression, since, though not usually upheld by such extreme penalties, it leaves fewer means of escape, penetrating much more deeply into the details of life, and enslaving the soul itself. ~ John Stuart Mill
Mandates quotes by John Stuart Mill
Far from trying to rig the system, I have spent decades opposing cronyism and all political favors, including mandates, subsidies and protective tariffs - even when we benefit from them. ~ Charles Koch
Mandates quotes by Charles Koch
I hear very little from evangelicals about the impact of gun proliferation on violent crime, much less an issue like nuclear disarmament. I hear almost nothing about health care for the poor and protecting widows and orphans, both biblical mandates, and scant mention of the thirteen million children who die worldwide from malnutrition in a year. I hear scornful dismissal of concerns about global warming, an issue viewed seriously by the vast majority of scientists. I hear talk about family values, but when an administration proposed legislation to allow mothers to take unpaid leave after childbirth, conservative religious groups opposed it. ~ Philip Yancey
Mandates quotes by Philip Yancey
Everything we do these days - our lust for ever more comfort, pleasure, and distraction, our refusal to engage with the mandates of reality, our fidelity to cults of technology and limitless growth, our narcissistic national exceptionalism - all of this propels us toward the realm where souls abandon all hope. ~ James Howard Kunstler
Mandates quotes by James Howard Kunstler
Our mandate is to find the 200 best companies in the world and invest in them, and find the 200 worst companies in the world and go short on them. If the 200 best don't do better than the 200 worst, you should probably be in another business. ~ Julian Robertson
Mandates quotes by Julian Robertson
Government mandates, incidentally, are likely to distort rather than solve the problem of finding a market. I would, therefore, force my organization to live by its wits rather than to rely on capricious subsidies or non-economic-based regulation to fuel my business. ~ Clayton Christensen
Mandates quotes by Clayton Christensen
We find ourselves in a difficult situation in Europe. There's a crisis, weak growth, unemployment ... my duty is to ensure that by the end of my mandate France is in a better state than it was at the beginning. ~ Francois Hollande
Mandates quotes by Francois Hollande
Christian writers, whether they like it or not, do not simply write for themselves; for good or ill, readers will see their work as reflecting Jesus Christ and his church. And if only for this reason - though there are other reasons - one must take great care when dealing with potentially controversial topics not to imagine one's every pronouncement preceded by 'Thus saith the Lord.' The law of love, on which 'all the law and the prophets' depend (Matt. 22:40), mandates charity toward one's opponents in argument. ~ Alan Jacobs
Mandates quotes by Alan Jacobs
It is not enough to show people how to live better: there is a mandate for any group with enormous powers of communication to show people how to be better. ~ Marya Mannes
Mandates quotes by Marya Mannes
The curious thing is Americans don't mind individual mandates when they come in the form of payroll taxes to buy mandatory public insurance. In fact, that's the system we call Social Security and Medicare, and both are so popular politicians dare not touch them. ~ Robert Reich
Mandates quotes by Robert Reich
The greatest spiritual leaders in history have all preached love for others as the basis for all happiness, and never did they accompany such mandates with a list of unlovable actions or deeds. They never said, love everybody except for the gays. Love everybody except for the homeless. Love everybody except for the drug users. Love everybody except for the gang members, or those covered in ink, or the spouse abusers. They didn't tell us it was okay to love everybody with the exception of the "trailer trash," those living in poverty, or the illegal immigrants. They didn't tell us it was okay to love everybody except for our ex-lovers, our lovers' ex lovers, or our ex-lovers' lovers. The mandate was pretty damn clear, wasn't it?
Love others.
Period. ~ Dan Pearce
Mandates quotes by Dan Pearce
Our mandate at Nerdist is that we only get involved with nice people around things that we love. We have the luxury of being in the demographic that we're programming for. ~ Chris Hardwick
Mandates quotes by Chris Hardwick
Going in and occupying Iraq, thus unilaterally exceeding the United Nations' mandate, would have destroyed the precedent of international response to aggression that we hoped to establish. Had we gone the invasion route, the United States could conceivably still be an occupying power in a bitterly hostile land. ~ George H. W. Bush
Mandates quotes by George H. W. Bush
Religion claims we must obey the mandates of God and clergy can tell us what they are. Science claims we must obey the laws of nature and scientists can tell us what they are. Both claims are absurdly pretentious. ~ Dee Hock
Mandates quotes by Dee Hock
For too long, unfunded federal mandates have drained the budgets of states and communities. The strength and vitality of our communities must be restored. ~ Bernie Sanders
Mandates quotes by Bernie Sanders
All human beings have a right, and duty, to be joyful. Anything that thwarts this spiritual human right goes against the very purpose of human being. Spirituality mandates us to wage a relentless war to eradicate these forces of oppression and disempowerment. ~ Agnivesh
Mandates quotes by Agnivesh
By divine mandate the interpreter and guardian of the Scriptures, and the depository of Sacred Tradition living within her, the Church alone is the entrance to salvation: She alone, by herself, and under the protection and guidance of the Holy Spirit, is the source of truth. ~ Pope Pius XII
Mandates quotes by Pope Pius XII
We as Christians have a mandate to be nonconformists. ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.
Mandates quotes by Martin Luther King, Jr.
I do think that the elections of 2010 and 2012 are going to determine the trajectory of the country. Either we're going to be aspiring and improving opportunities based on freedom and responsibility, or we're going to go down the path that dictates and mandates a dependency on government. ~ George Allen
Mandates quotes by George Allen
I feel I have a divine mandate to go and tell the people of this world that it is possible to be strong in the Lord Jesus Christ. We are in training for the tribulation, but more than sixty percent of the Body of Christ across the world has already entered into the tribulation. There is no way to escape it. We are next ~ Corrie Ten Boom
Mandates quotes by Corrie Ten Boom
The fact is that many countries that call themselves free succumbed to medical dictatorship ... people are sicker and less healthy ... A country which mandates vaccination is not a free country ... It is a country of zombies who do what they are told by vested interests who intimidate them and use them to make money. ~ Viera Scheibner
Mandates quotes by Viera Scheibner
Mandates are rarely won on election night. They are earned after Inauguration Day by leaders who spend their political capital wisely, taking advantage of events without overreaching. ~ Ron Fournier
Mandates quotes by Ron Fournier
Congress seems to thrive on breaking promises and passing unfunded mandates down to local government. It's really just a matter of priorities. ~ Jared Polis
Mandates quotes by Jared Polis
Most of the Ten Commandments are negative. The purpose of law is not to mandate good behavior. That concept comes from the French Revolution. ~ Randall Terry
Mandates quotes by Randall Terry
