Pastoral Resources

I don't think a reporter should give advice or make predictions.

Whatever you may think of Mrs. Clinton as a character, I think she believes quite strongly in public service.

The advice that is wanted is commonly not welcome and that which is not wanted, evidently an effrontery.

This nation can no longer tolerate the autonomous conduct of any single service. A waste of the resources of America in spendthrift defense is an invitation to disaster for America.

During the election, I had three male opponents and we went into a runoff. The front runner for the men was a native of Dallas who had run at large before, but I had a higher profile than him from my community service.

Anybody who thinks talk is cheap should get some legal advice.

Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but wish we didn't.

He who can take advice is sometimes superior to him who can give it.

Expressing the thoughts of my comrades, I suggested, among other means, the organization of an international information service on inventories, on production, and on the needs of the various countries for raw materials.

On completion of my military service, I went back to the factory and to the trade union.

To teach a man how he may learn to grow independently, and for himself, is perhaps the greatest service that one man can do another.

You know, I hate to give advice because my life has been so odd that almost nothing that's happened to me can apply.

If I have any advice to give to the Syrian president it is to cooperate for the sake of the investigation or for the sake of uncovering the truth.

The injustice done to an individual is sometimes of service to the public.

The Germans certainly - the intelligence service believed that there were WMD. It turns out that we were all wrong, probably in my judgment, and that is most disturbing.

I do believe we have to understand why reality turned out to be different than expectations and estimates. But you have more public service - certainly many of you - than I have ever had, and you recognize that this is not unusual.

In a tribal organization, even in time of peace, service to tribe or state predominates over all self seeking; in war, service for the tribe or state becomes supreme, and personal liberty is suspended.

In my public service, I treasure my friendship with law enforcement officers. I admire what they do and support them in every aspect of their job. I have always looked upon law enforcement officers as my friends.

A young man who does not have what it takes to perform military service is not likely to have what it takes to make a living. Today's military rejects include tomorrow's hard-core unemployed.

I saw courage both in the Vietnam War and in the struggle to stop it. I learned that patriotism includes protest, not just military service.
