A wife lasts only for the length of the marriage, but an ex-wife is there for the rest of your life.

Go learn the language. Go take some acting lessons. Start from zero like everybody else.

I was taught you never, ever disrespect your opponent or your teammates or your organization or your manager and never, ever your uniform.

Slang is a language that rolls up its sleeves, spits on its hands and goes to work.

The sea speaks a language polite people never repeat. It is a colossal scavenger slang and has no respect.

It was a wonderful experience to play in the NFL, and I have no regrets. I truly will miss playing for the Lions. I consider the Lions' players, coaches, staff, management and fans my family. I leave on good terms with everyone in the organization.

At the current $5.15 an hour, the federal minimum wage has become a poverty wage. A full-time worker with one child lives below the official poverty line.

The submission of her body without love or desire is degrading to the woman's finer sensibility, all the marriage certificates on earth to the contrary notwithstanding.

Women of the working class, especially wage workers, should not have more than two children at most. The average working man can support no more and and the average working woman can take care of no more in decent fashion.

Language is like money, without which specific relative values may well exist and be felt, but cannot be reduced to a common denominator.

Religion in its humility restores man to his only dignity, the courage to live by grace.

Isn't that the ultimate homeland security, standing up and defending marriage?

I'm always told that what I say is controversial. Why is it controversial? Because I speak from a tradition that has now fallen out of favor with the dominant media in this country. And so when I say things like marriage should be between one man and one woman, I'm called a bigot.

Every society in the history of man has upheld the institution of marriage as a bond between a man and a woman. Why? Because society is based on one thing: that society is based on the future of the society. And that's what? Children. Monogamous relationships.

It is quite an illusion to imagine that one adjusts to reality essentially without the use of language and that language is merely an incidental means of solving specific problems of communication or reflection.

No important national language, at least in the Occidental world, has complete regularity of grammatical structure, nor is there a single logical category which is adequately and consistently handled in terms of linguistic symbolism.

It would, of course, be hopeless to attempt to crowd into an international language all those local overtones of meaning which are so dear to the heart of the nationalist.

It is no secret that the fruits of language study are in no sort of relation to the labour spent on teaching and learning them.

A common creation demands a common sacrifice, and perhaps not the least potent argument in favour of a constructed international language is the fact that it is equally foreign, or apparently so, to the traditions of all nationalities.

A standard international language should not only be simple, regular, and logical, but also rich and creative.
