I think one of the great problems we have in the Republican Party is that we don't encourage you to be nasty. We encourage you to be neat obedient loyal and faithful and all those Boy Scout words which would be great around a campfire but are lousy in politics.

In other words don't expect to always be great. Disappointments failures and setbacks are a normal part of the lifecycle of a unit or a company and what the leader has to do is constantly be up and say 'we have a problem let's go and get it'.

I think in a way I invented the term 'fight club' and that these things have always existed but they never really had a label. Nobody had a language to apply to them.

Abuse of words has been the great instrument of sophistry and chicanery of party faction and division of society.

The water in a vessel is sparkling the water in the sea is dark. The small truth has words which are clear the great truth has great silence.

One great use of words is to hide our thoughts.

If you are young and you drink a great deal it will spoil your health slow your mind make you fat - in other words turn you into an adult.
